i really wanted to see him in the ASG

[Ortiz34]

me too

[schillingouttheks]

oh well, im still glad i get to see lance berkman in the HR derby, hes a great addition, player of the month for may or june? i forget which one...im also happy beltran gets to play, he was the lead vote receiver for the AL back in KC, but still, hes a great player

[Ortiz34]

he deserves it

[Zenny]

Giambi is not going to participate in the HR Derby. If all goes well, maybe Ortiz will start the All-Star Game!

[yagmaster]

Is there any reason that he wouldn't? (I'm actually asking, not being a jerk)

[Ortiz34]

yeah if Giambi is too sick to be in homerun derby, why should he start in the game?

Because he probably wanted to rest instead of participate in a HR derby.
