Career
Summarize
Perspective
Dunn played college baseball at the University of Utah. In 2018, he played collegiate summer baseball with the Wareham Gatemen of the Cape Cod Baseball League.[1]
New York Yankees
Dunn was drafted by the New York Yankees in the 11th round, with the 345th overall selection, of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft.[2] He split his first professional season between the rookie–level Pulaski Yankees and Single–A Charleston RiverDogs. Dunn did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
Dunn returned to action in 2021 with the High–A Hudson Valley Renegades and Double–A Somerset Patriots. In 72 games split between the two affiliates, he batted .196/.335/.368 with seven home runs, 25 RBI, and 10 stolen bases.[4] Dunn played in 36 games split between Somerset and the Triple–A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders in 2022, slashing .288/.406/.525 with three home runs and 18 RBI.[5]
Philadelphia Phillies
On December 7, 2022, the Philadelphia Phillies selected Dunn in the minor league phase of the Rule 5 draft.[6] He spent the 2023 campaign with the Double–A Reading Fightin Phils, batting .271/.396/.506 with career–highs in home runs (21), RBI (78), and stolen bases (16). Dunn played in the Arizona Fall League after the 2023 season.[7]
Milwaukee Brewers
On November 14, 2023, the Phillies traded Dunn to the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for Hendry Mendez and Robert Moore. The Brewers subsequently added Dunn to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[8]
Dunn was optioned to the Triple–A Nashville Sounds to begin the 2024 season.[9] However, following an injury to Garrett Mitchell, Dunn was recalled to the Opening Day roster.[10] In 41 games for Milwaukee, he batted .221/.282/.316 with one home run, seven RBI, and three stolen bases. Dunn was placed on the injured list with a back strain on June 27,[11] and transferred to the 60–day injured list on July 15.[12]
