To call Adam Dunn's time with the Chicago White Sox a disappointment, would be an understatement. On Sunday, Dunn was shipped off to the Oakland Athletics on the final day that teams could acquire players and place them on their postseason roster.In the winter heading into the 2011 season, the White Sox tried to sell their "All In" movement to their fans. Dunn, was the face of the team's mindset that they would do whatever it took to win another World Series. Former general manager Kenny Williams, who was never afraid to jeopardize the future of the franchise in order to win right away, handed The Big Donkey a 4 year 56 million dollar deal.Throw away what sabermetrics might say about Dunn's OBP being respectable at times. Don't be caught up in people pointing to the fact that Dunn saw a large number of pitches during his at-bats, his walk total, or his 95 homers over the course of the past three years. Adam Dunn's contract was the worst in franchise history.Dunn's legacy with the White Sox will be highlighted by all those swings that would lead to him taking a slow stroll back to the dugout. His 222 strikeouts two years ago was horrendous and a symbol of the designated hitter's time in Chicago.Yes, Dunn provided some moments of glory. He did have walk-off homers and would deliver occasionally in the clutch with a base hit. Heck he even was at the plate during that famous balk-off win. Despite these positives, Dunn was never that threat in the middle of the lineup that the Sox thought they were getting three and a half years ago.What frustrated most of Dunn's teammates over the years was the criticism their beloved friend received from the media and fans. That's the thing, Dunn was not a bad guy. He was never cocky or full of himself. During his tenure in Chicago, he took the heat and admitted that he needed to do better. He took care of rookies like how he took pitcher Scott Carroll out to dinner after his first start this year.At times, Dunn would even have fun with the negative words he would receive from others. He famously tipped his cap after getting on base amid his historically terrible 2011 season. While he never had a serious blowup while he was struggling, people could tell that the hardships were taking a toll on him at the plate. That could be a huge reason why he plans on possibly retiring after this season.General manager Rick Hahn once again is showing that his sight is on the future and will do whatever it takes to cleanse the franchise of previous mistakes. Getting something, anything, for one of the biggest disappointments in White Sox history, is another step in the right direction.Follow Nick on Twitter: @KapN93Nick Kapetan hosts The Sports ReKap with co-host DJ Vogt on MarquetteWire.org.
