CrankThatCrabtree Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Pat Burrell should be the final guy voted on, the every team represented rule is the #### Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheaptrick77 Posted July 7, 2008 Author Share Posted July 7, 2008 ^ I actually have no problem with that rule ... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrankThatCrabtree Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 my bad guys, didn't realize that word was prohibited. Cristian Guzman isn't that good and who the heck is Nate McLouth, the Pirates record isn't terrible but what makes him better than Xavier Nady and Jason Bay.

cheaptrick77 Posted July 8, 2008 Author Share Posted July 8, 2008 Cristian Guzman isn't that good How can you say that a player in his 9th MLB season who is currently hitting at a .313 clip (good enough to rank 7th in NL batting) & whose 119 hits lead the National League "isn't that good" ??? :ermm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdawg16 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I know there are many Anti Astros here in this part of east texas...but Carlos Lee is having an excellent year to date as well. He was my vote x25 yesterday. :houastros: .292 avg 20hr's 70 rbi's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrankThatCrabtree Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 yeah I didn't realize he was back to 2001 form, not much coverage for the Nats. If that issue was up for player vote on putting the best and most deserving players in the game David Wright would be in with his 17 HRs and 70 RBIs. He only gets 3 less hits per 100 at-bats ..... (30 points in the batting average) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
