2007 Home Run Derby

[schillingouttheks]

Okay...this last series was rough for all of us, but this team is better than what they've been playing like. Hopefully this sweep was a slap in the face and this break is just what they've needed. Also, hopefully the FO will do something to ensure that this team is the juggernaut that it should be. OKAY....now that that's out of the way:

 

The Home Run Derby is only a day away. Let's get our minds off of the Red Sox and how much they've sucked recently onto the all-star break and its festivities.

 

So I ask you....WHO WILL WIN IT?

 

There will probably be another NL contestant. Miguel Cabrera pulled out because he injured his shoulder today. Personally, I think Howard's going to repeat.

[Cityofchampions33]

I agree, usually players complain about having to change their swings to hit HRs, well Howard's swing is just built to hit HRs, the man can do it in his sleep.

[KeepTheFaith1229]

Morn00.

 

No clue why, just have a feeling.

[CrespoBlows]

I'll take Fielder.

[Sox Fan In Indy]

Fielder.

[zackredsox]

Guerrero

[MDF3530]

I'm going with Mags.

 

The reason: he's a former White Sox. He left here on bad terms, but I still like him.

[Youk Of The Nation]

The obvious choice always seems to be wrong...Ill go with Ordonez because hes more likely to make contact than the others.

[Sox Fan on Cape]

I'll take Fielder.

[castigs850]

this is Vlad's first derby right? i like him to win it

[Papelbon58]

The guy who you think should win it never does, so that rules out Howard and Fielder. Pujols hasn't hit any homers this year, so bye bye to him, Vlad isn't used to hitting good pitches, so I'm going with Mags.

[Quinny]

Matt Holliday will replace Miguel Cabrera in the derby.

[HeadOfSoxNation]

Morneau will win if they have a White Sox SP throwing.

[Sox fan in Tex]

Guerrero.

[Beckett95]

rios or pujols

[lasordas speed dial]

Rios.

[TedWilliams101]

Pujols. Howard will come in second.

[DUSTINMOHR4LIFE]

I'm split bettwen Prince and Howard... I'll take Prince.

 

Does Rios really have that much power? I was suprised to see him in.

[lasordas speed dial]

I'm split bettwen Prince and Howard... I'll take Prince.

 

Does Rios really have that much power? I was suprised to see him in.

 

Yes. 17 HRs. He has a ridiculous uppercut swing which is why he will win.

[ARod2212]

Rios is 7th in the AL in homers, and was a great pickup for my girlfriend's fantasy team.

 

Vladdy will win, but I don't think I'll watch it. I can't stand Chris Berman.

[Soxfan1]

Fielder

[jacksonianmarch]

Howard.

[Thumper]

Howard

[BoSox34]

I'd like to see Prince Fielder win it. What time does it start?

[Manny Goes Boom]

Howard

[TheKilo]

Matt Holliday

[redsoxrules]

the first 4 havent done much , lets hope the next 4 do better

[See Red]

Not much in the first round, leaders tied for five.

 

Holliday did very well in the second round, though.

 

Rios kicked all sorts of ass, right there.

[redsoxrules]

guerrero smoked one 503 feet, almost right into the big glove

[jacksonianmarch]

having Joe Morgan sound stupid for hours is actually entertaining.
