[Kuzzy Powers]

Homer much?

Id say all three are legit. Hill has tailed off a bit but Scutaro has been the most consistent SS in the AL and Lind is a legit All-Star this year.. maybe not a starter but I had to give my Jays some love.

AL

OF - Ibanez
OF - Braun
OF - Beltran
SP - Cain

Almost exactly how I voted save one, I went Fielder over Pujols on the sole basis that it's kind of a given Pujols is making it and I think Fielder is the second most deserving 1st basement who's putting up better numbers than any NL 1st Baseman not named Albert Pujols.

That and the AL SP, I would have voted Verlander because despite an off night tonight, the kid's on fire this season.

If by deserves it fully, you mean "if Brian McCann were not superior" than yeah, sure, why not?

matt cain - 9-2, 2.57 era, 85k, 1.23 whip
johan santana - 9-6, 3.34 era, 104k, 1.26 whip

sorry, but cain > santana right now

Haren should be the NL starter.

Haren should be the NL starter.



We get it.

1. eh, id say theyre pretty having equal years, mccan leading average pretty heavily, molina leading in homes, and leading pretty heavily in rbis

2. i was saying cain was having a better year than santana, absolutely nowhere did i put anything about being the starter or dan haren

 

[chazmaniandevil]

True that chaz, it's a close one. Cain probably the better choice, my bad

cant go wrong with either really, i think theyll both be there in the end

 

[Rylo]

NL:
SS: Hanley Ramirez

That's all I care about.

Also I hope JJ gets in. 8-1 FTW.

1 I'll take the 50 pts of average, you can keep the 2 HRs and 13 RBI (in 70 more at bats). You also neglected to mention McCann's OPS is .906, which is the best in the majors for an everyday catcher, compared to Bengie's .696, which isn't even best in his own family. So yeah, 300 points in OPS outweighs any argument you could possibly have.

2 And I am saying Haren is having a better year than Cain.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

Reds have the best bullpen in baseball, and Coco Cordero has been very, very good. Not a sigle one of you fools has mentioned him. Weathers-Rhodes-Cordero has been lethal.
