I think that the steroid era has minimized or cheapened the home run, especially with players like Bonds, McGwire, Sosa, etc. Had Dunn accomplished another important milestone instead of 500 HR (which I know he's not there yet), say like 3000 hits, I really don't think we would even be having this discussion and most everyone would agree that he was a future HOFer based on 3000 hits.

I agree David, but he's a shitty hitter. He's probably 6'7", 285 lbs., if he just makes contact he's going to hit home runs. How many K's has this guy had in his career? I would venture to say it's in the top 10 of all time...
