no its retarded. If its going to decide home field advantage MLB should take it serious. Fans should not decide home field advantage and every team does NOT deserve or need a player in the game. MANY of the best players are either not in the game at all or not starting like they should be, its a total piece of shit utter crap fest.
Lackey almost sorta threw a no-hitter. First batter of the game he gave up a double so it obviously wasnt a no-no. But then he did record 27 straight outs with no hits, which is just as hard as a no-no except i guess the fact that if he was actually on pace for the no-no there would be more pressure. Hes only the 4th guy to do this in the last 50 years, really odd thing to happen.
Let's do midseason predictions on who will win the Series, who will make the playoffs, MVP both leagues and Cy Young both leagues.
Series......hmmm Ill say....Boston over Mets
AL: Boston, White Sox, Texas and Detriot
NL: St.Louis, Mets, San Diego, LA,
MVP: AL: Hafner
NL😛ujols again
CY: NL: Penny
AL: Roy Halladay
AL: Double Sox, Seattle(homer pick), and Detriot
NL: St.Louis, Mets, Dodgers, San diego (id say houston if the NL west didnt suck so much that it made it easy for all the teams in it, man the west coast blows)
MVP: AL: Ortiz
NL: Pujols (but im really liking David Wright
CY: NL: Brandon Webb
AL: Liriano has no competition if he keeps this up
I think I like the Mets to win it all right now, mainly because their playoff run will be much easier on them than it will be on any of the AL teams.

I'll watch.I'll also watch the Homerun Derby, which Ryan Howard will win.
ill watch but i mean come on, Mauer isnt the starting catcher? are you kidding me hes hitting almost 400. and the AL pitching it total crap on who got selected. I also dont like that they pick 3 OF's and they dont pick positions. Why not just pick 4 Infielders then instead of picking by actual positions.

Who would you select for AL pitching?
justin verlander, fransico liriano (although he ended up making it), john lackey. Kenny Rogers, Buehrle, and redman just dont belong, Rogers is close, but theres better guys. even ones i didnt mention.
Howard definitely looked good, but i was most impressed by David Wrights 16 HR first round, especially because he had the bigger challenge hitting from the right side. But Howards clutch late homeruns were impressive. Interesting the top 3 were NL East.
If the Phillies could just get some pitching, they could be a real good team. Thats why I really hope they make the 3 way trade for Dontrelle, which would mean trading Abreu or Burrell to the Yankees. I hate both Abreu and Burrell, so I love this trade. It will be great to see Yankee fans boo them, because they'll expect them to be good, when in truth, Burrell strikes out ALOT in big situations, and Abreu's attitude is horrible. He is afraid of the wall, and all he cares about is his stats.
