State Farm HR Derby

[TheKilo]

Who do you like?

 

I'm thinking the LHH has a decided advantage, so I'm going to go with a Hamilton/Berkman final with the Big Puma taking it down.

 

RHH with the best chance to win? Ryan Braun.

[schillingouttheks]

I too am going to go with a LHH because of the porch. Berkman/Utley final with Berkman pulling it out.

 

My RHH would be Uggla.

[Gom]

I don't care who wins as long as I catch a homerun ball.

Where exactly are you sitting?

[msubulldogs21]

As for my pick, I'm going with Morneau over Utley.

[Gom]

Where exactly are you sitting?

Right Field Bleachers.

Am I the only one who's disappointed with the lineup? I know they are all great players, but honestly in the Home Run Derby I want to see real big names, big strong dudes who can hit mile long homers. I'm gonna miss the days of Sammy Sosa, Barry Bonds, Ken Griffey and such. These guys just don't do it for me this year. Why no Ryan Howard, or ALbert Pujols, or Vlad Guerrero, or Jim Thome, or hell, even Jason Giambi?

[TheKilo]

So you're saying you like steroids?

[TheKilo]

PS I am amending my pick because allegedly Berkman's gonna hit righty.

 

Josh Hamilton.

[BoSox21]

I pick Hamilton to pound the porch all night

Because usually all-stars compete in the home run derby. Guys who aren't all-stars don't tend to be there...

I like this lineup a lot. Good mix of young talent.

[Beckett95]

my sleeper pick is Sizemore, but i think Utley wins it

[ksushi]

You a state farm rep. or something, Kilo?

 

I'll take Utley.

[BSN07]

I too am going with the Leftys. Hamilton over Utley.

 

 

Sleeper pick is Longoria.

[Soxfan1]

Hamilton or Braun. Sleeper is Longoria.

[BSN07]

What's everyones thoughts on Arod declining to participate?

 

I usually say let the player do whatever he wants, its a long season and who am I to say how they should spend there break.

 

But this being his home park in its last year, and your the big RH hitter in the American league, you gotta go to this thing and play.

[TheKilo]

f*** I thought I heard Berkman was hitting lefty.

 

No matter Hamilton's got this

[TheKilo]

HOLY s*** OFF THE BACK WALL OF YS?

[TheKilo]

This is incredible. Incredible.

[YAZMAN]

This kid is f***ing ridiculous.

[Rdsxmbnt]

I pick Hamilton

[TedWilliams101]

When Abreu hit 24HR in the Derby in 05', if someone had told me that it would be topped, I would have called them insane. Unbelievable.

[BSN07]

Wow...... I mean Wow........ That was impressive to say the least. 518ft of of BP pitching..... That guy is incredible..... Wow

[BoSox21]

I pick Hamilton to pound the porch all night

 

yup

[Cocos Disciples]

Where did the 518 footer land?

[Cocos Disciples]

Soooo this call your shot thing...is it fixed?

[msubulldogs21]

As for my pick' date=' I'm going with Morneau.[/quote']
