Homer, two steals Thursday
OFCincinnati Reds
September 19, 2024
Dunn went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk, two stolen bases and three total runs scored in Thursday's 15-3 loss to Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
It was a rough day for the Reds overall, though Dunn provided a bright spot -- the 26-year-old outfielder swiped his first two bases in the majors before swatting his first big-league homer, a 422-foot blast off Chris Sale. Dunn had gone just 2-for-21 in 16 games prior to Thursday. He'll likely fill a bench role for Cincinnati over the final week of the season.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Dunn has been statistically dominant at Single-A as a 23-year-old (179 wRC+), and at High-A (149 wRC+) and Double-A (163 wRC+) as a 24-year-old. He has stolen 72 bases with 27 home runs in 157 games over that stretch, but his age hangs over all this production like a cloud. There are no top-100 hitting prospects who were born before 1999, so the fact that Dunn was born in 1998 and hasn't even reached Triple-A is relevant. Joey Ortiz, Austin Shenton and Michael Busch are the other hitters born before 1999 in the top 200, but they've all essentially mastered Triple-A already. Dunn has dealt with injuries that have slowed his development, and he is legitimately a good athlete, unlike most late bloomers, so we shouldn't write him off just because of his age, although we should greatly temper expectations. The nice thing about rostering Dunn in dynasty leagues is that you can churn the spot (cut him) as soon as he struggles at Triple-A, and if he doesn't struggle, you just ride it out.
