32nd man for All-Star Game

jbergey22 · 07-04-2006, 09:17 PM

Is there anywhere to see how the voting is currently going for this? I might just throw up if the white sox get yet another mediocre player in. If you havent voted please vote(preferrably Liriano but NOT AJ) MLB.com

It annoys me that I can't vote for Hafner. He really deserves it, but having Liriano left off the roster is just ridiculous....

I agree, Hafner deserves to be in as well! Konerko or Dye should be left out!

Recte44 · 07-04-2006, 10:40 PM

Make sure to vote for Capuano while you're there, please.

Dye's 1.018 OPS deserves to be there. The players got that one right. He actually should be starting over Vlad.

Biased much?

Ozzie didn't put Dye on the team, silly.

But he picked Konerko over Hafner and Buerhle over Liriano.

As much as I love Hafner, he's hardly a 'real' first-baseman.

Schmidty · 07-05-2006, 12:10 AM

Vote Verlander.

So should Ortiz be left off?

So in your world 9 is more than 10 and 7 is more than 12? Please don't make generalizations if they aren't true.

mgsports79 · 07-05-2006, 08:09 AM

No he shouldn't be left.
I think every team should have somebody for you to vote for.
We should be able to vote for the whole All-Star teams.

It is weak argument when you have to dig for a mis wording of words to defend an argument. It has now been corrected, where to you get 12 from anyway? Liriano dominates Verlander in every category except wins(10-9). MY MISTAKE! brilliant catch

LIRIANO 2006 MIN 21 9 9 1 1 0 0 81.1 59 18 18 5 20 94 1.99 0.97 .203

VERLANDER 2006 DET 17 17 10 4 0 1 1 110.2 97 39 37 11 33 69 3.01 1.17 .241

I voted for Garciappara & Liriano about 20 times. I'm not sure what the limit is.

abailey3313 · 07-05-2006, 10:29 AM

Vote Ramon Hernandez!

Joshv02 · 07-05-2006, 10:38 AM

I'd vote Liriano, but I don't vote for Twins other than Johan.

Boring as sin. Death to my baseball sensibilities.

I guess if you dislike the way baseball was designed to be played (good pitching, good defense, and good situational hitting) you would find the Twins "Boring as sin." Maybe you are a Rockies fan?
