League: Union Association

MVP: Ozzie Guillen

WP: Mark Redman

Save: Loretta

 

On a more relevant note, anyone watching the pre-game on ESPN? Bud is thinking of making a rule that would prevent pitchers on the ASG roster from pitching the Sunday prior. WTF is that guy thinking? Now he wants to intentionally meddle with the season for the ASG. This clown needs to go.

FSN has a pre-game show, too. I think I'm better off watching Leanne Tweeden than Steve Phillips. :thumbsup:

Bud is an idiot

 

How can you tell a team that they cant pitch someone when they want b/c they have to be ready for an "All Star game". You are going to see some backlash from players and teams on that rule if it ever goes down. I could see some pitchers just saying I'll pitch Sunday and I'll skip the ASG

Don't worry, for a rule to be implemented, it has to be voted on by the owners. Nobody will back this as it would affect the outcome of games.

I'm seriously hoping all this steroid/hgh s*** comes down on top of him. He knew about it. And he constantly screws with the game when he's not ignoring it's problems. This clown really needs to go.

oh god, joe buck & tim McCarver

 

easy prediction, they will go on for awhile about manny not at the all-star game

----------------

EDIT: Ok Brad Penny struck out Ichiro for the first out

 

McCarver said that this is the best he has seen an all-star starting pitcher pitch since Pedro in 99 :blink:

Totally agree. All of his actions concerning the ASG are dumbass moves that usually prove to be nothing but reactionary blunders. For example a few years back the game ends in a tie because there were no pitchers left. His response, make the games “count” by determining home field advantage for the WS to the league that wins. What does one have to do with the other?

I think FOX had more to do with the decision to have home field go to the winner of the ASG rather than MLB. Personally, I would just award home field to whichever league wins interleague play overall. The ASG doesn't need to count for anything

That's actually a really solid idea.
