[wyo-sox]

Ortiz.... nuff said

 

Still.

[jacksonianmarch]

That sound was the end of Joe Blanton's career

[Thunder]

Big Papi means Home Run king in Spanish.

[BornToRun]

That was way low.

[Thunder]

Damn Napoli. Stop striking out.

No it doesn't. But it should.

[BornToRun]

Blanton's getting a wider zone and he's still getting wrecked.

[BornToRun]

FFS Dempster.

[User Name]

Jesus f***ing Christ Dempster

[BornToRun]

The guy's a goddamn bitch hitter.

[Station 13]

f*** you Dempster.

[wyo-sox]

I guess this is a guy "eating innings"

[BornToRun]

If he can limp through 6 without giving another run, I'll be happy.

[a700hitter]

Put Adam Dunn in the HOF.

[Station 13]

If he can limp through 6 without giving another run, I'll be happy.

 

He throws such s*** pitches down the middle I dunno.

[BornToRun]

Blanton's getting every call.

Alberto CallsFAIL

[wyo-sox]

If Iggy can get on board we are in good position to get some runs here.

They brought up a good point on NESN. Daniel Nava should be an All-Star based on numbers. It is a shame it has to be a popularity contest.

 

To understand what I am talking about, Jeter hasn't even played a games this year, but still has over 500,000 votes and is 5th in the American League. That is a joke.

 

Dustin Pedroia is trailing Robinson Cano by 700,000 votes. He did jump Kinsler to be second on the ballot, but it is sad that it has to be a popularity contest. Pedroia has a better OPS, BA, and OBP than Cano. Cano beats him in slugging and, HR's, and RBI's. I think most people just look at HR's and vote. Cano has 15 as compared to Pedroia's 4. Cano only has 5 more RBI's. Pedroia has 9 more doubles than Cano.

 

Point being, Cano is more popular than Pedroia. Even though Pedroia has had a better season offensively (.335 BA, .884 OPS, and 137 OPS+) as compared to Cano (.276 BA, .845 OPS, and 127 OPS+) and a better season defensively, yet Cano still is way ahead in the voting. Not to mention, Kendrick should be in the top five over Kinsler, Infante, and Altuve.

 

I think there should be some sort of alternative to fan voting. I understand MLB wants fan involvement, but a lot of times the fans get the voting wrong.

They should do what the NFL did to their exhibition game.

[BornToRun]

[Station 13]

JFC gotta get Carp in in that situation Iggy.

[BornToRun]

Come on ells.

[BornToRun]

[wyo-sox]
