And did they really fubar the Strasburg thing in it's entirety?

MLB is the stupidest collection of rich people ever.

well that and the fact he doesn't deserve to be an All-Star -- nm - CQ Jul 4, 10:15 15
- when you force a player from every team... you already compromised deserving it -- nm - stewie Jul 4, 10:37
- Put him on the last guy in vote and see what the fans think. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 4, 10:17 13
  - Cargo's having a better rookie season (better than Heyward too, btw) -- nm - flavorize Jul 4, 10:19 1

  - yeah, he'd be in based on ESPN hype and crap no doubt. Still, you can't add a guy to an all-star team because of potential. -- nm - CQ Jul 4, 10:19 10
    - Yeah, it wasn't ESPN hype. - Will Hunting Jul 4, 10:21 9
      - and if he keeps it up for the rest of the year and next year, then he can be your precious little all-star and you can throw a party -- nm - CQ Jul 4, 10:24 7
        
        Did he kill your dog or something? - Will Hunting Jul 4, 10:26 6
        
        I think he's fantastic, but his body of work, to me, is not enough to justify an all-star appearance. -- nm - CQ Jul 4, 10:29 5
        
        110% concur -- nm - TFox Jul 4, 11:41
        
        I agree with you completely. Not this year, not with the small sample size we have right now. -- nm - Krusty Jul 4, 10:56
        
        That's why you let the fans decide. - Will Hunting Jul 4, 10:32 2
        
        but this time it matters! -- nm - CQ Jul 4, 10:33 1
        
        If the fans get to vote for the teams and every team has to be represented then the game shouldn't count for anything. - Krusty Jul 4, 10:59
      - He does have an all-star arm. But only playing 1/3 of the 1st half, hard to justify. Blame the Nats, for not calling him up sooner - flavorize Jul 4, 10:24
I'm not sure. He's only played 4 out of the 13 weeks, with only 6 starts and a 2-2 record. I guess it comes down to "best players" vs "best 1st half" -- nm - flavorize Jul 4, 10:11
It was the first question Manuel was asked and he was prickly about it. -- nm - David Jul 4, 10:03
Manuel said - nubby Jul 4, 10:02 1
- What a candy-ass thing to attempt to justify it. - Will Hunting Jul 4, 10:04
