"Adam Dunn's struggles against left-handed pitchers have been well-documented, but he will be front and center as the White Sox face overpowering right-handers Ervin Santana and Jered Weaver on Tuesday and Wednesday in Anaheim. Ditto for the final three games of the trip in Seattle.

The last time the Sox traveled to Seattle and Anaheim (May 6-11), Dunn had his best streak of the season. His six-game stats: 10-for-23 (.435) with five doubles, a homer and four RBIs.

Dunn is also 5-for-15 in his last four games before the trip.

But the decision of whether to play Dunn against lefties remains, given his .037 average against them."
