Pathetic job on the All-Star rosters by Manuel and Girardi, as usual. Liriano, Votto (on the final vote, though), Jered Weaver, and King Felix got screwed.

Also seriously disappointed that Boesch isn't in the final vote. He has better numbers than all of those guys.

Delmon Young is easily the least deserving of the five options. Konerko or Youkilis deserve it, Youkilis will probably get it from the northeast vote.

Wrong. Nick Swisher would be the least deserving.

Well...completely disagree, but who cares. Neither of them should be there.

Yeah, it'd be a crime if anyone but Konerko or Youkolis wins the spot.

Anyways, go White Sox!!!

Won another series against another top team. 1 game back and playing hot!! Cubs got drilled which makes the day even better.

Those big bad first place Cincinnati Reds come to Citi Field to take on the Mets and hopefully Joey Votto (who should have been on the all star roster) won't take his anger out on the Mets. lol How is he not on the roster and Omar Infante makes it? Yadier Molina?? LOL Jason Heyward?? c'mon now. What about some of those Padres pitchers (ie: Gregerson)?

3 teams within 1 game. Ridiculous. Too bad this didn't happen at the end of the season :D

Once again, the Padres get snubbed with the all star selection. I can't really say I blame them though, other than Adrian we don't have huge stars.

Heh, rough inning for the Mets.


Home plate ump needs to DIAF big time. Atrocious job by him but at the same time a poor job by Pelfrey who clearly lost it after some bad calls. He should have calmed down but he didn't and left it all in the middle of the plate in anger and boy did the Reds tee off.


edit: Nice comeback attempt but the Mets fall short and lose. Joey Votto is a monster.

It's going to happen, might as well accept it now. If the Twins really offered Hicks and Ramos, I'm not sure what the M's are waiting for.

See if they can get something better. 15 teams have inquired so far. My guess is that a deal wont happen until last minute before the deadline. I'd like Cincinnati to get him, I'm actually pulling for them this year.

This man clearly does not deserve to start in the All-Star game.

Man, what seasons Josh Hamilton and Miggy Cabrera are having. Hell, either one could win the triple crown this year. And don't forget about Morneau and Vlad in their rear view mirrors as well...

Now, it looks like TB might be in the Cliff Lee chase. Still, it won't fix the following:

For what it's worth, the attendance for this game between two of the top three teams in the American League East: a whopping 19,902.

Hamilton is a beast and Vlad has been outstanding. As a Rangers fan this season has been a lot of fun.
