Is he the Adam Dunn of this offseason?

Because he's old, can't field better than a 6 year old and had HUGE drop off in production at the plate in the second half of the season. He is best suited as a DH.

I can't take his second-half slump at face value. I mean he was hitting 300 with 20 homers before the all star break. He could have had a poor second half for a million reasons...undisclosed injury, personal problems, whatever.
I think Dye can still play. And in the right situation, he could be a free agent steal.

Pitchers and catchers always report to spring training ahead of the rest of the position players. Pitchers need more work to get started after the long off season.

Opening Day? Extremely doubtful.
All-Star break or after? If Posey tears up AAA + if Molina is struggling bad = chances are good.
If Molina has a decent year, however, I wouldn't be shocked if they kept Posey in AAA til call-ups, just because as I understand it they want him playing everyday, plus they would delay arbitration (I think)
Now if they choose to try him at 3rd or somewhere else ...

They should try to use him somewhere in the infield. Bengie's definitely not our weakest link on O. If Sanchez can't hold up, or Wrentawreck continues to play like crap, or Huff doesn't perform, or Derosa or whoever is going to play 1st base, throw him out there. He can probably hit pretty well already anyway.
