Glavine has already said he won't pitch as he is scheduled to pitch the Sunday before the All-Star game.... too bad because I think he or Arroyo would be the starter.

BTW I hate the All-Star voting.... how Varitek is leading Mauer makes me sick to my stomach. Varitek isn't even in the top 3 in AL catchers right now.

I guess you missed the last bullet:


PLEASE NOTE: IF PLAYER DOES NOT MAKE THE FINAL ALL STAR ROSTER THE ORDER WILL BE CANCELLED

I don't think that makes it official, I remember them selling Floyd all-star jerseys last year and he didn't get selected.

The N.L. jersey is plain and ugly.

As much as Mussina has had an all-star claiber season, there's no way he should have made it when the likes of Liriano and Verlander also didn't make it. The combination of Ozzie's nepotism and the rule that a Royal has to go screwed over Mussina and a couple of other pitchers.

It's not Guillen's fault he got stuck on the White Sox as a player.

As much as Mussina has had an all-star claiber season, there's no way he should have made it when the likes of Liriano and Verlander also didn't make it. The combination of Ozzie's nepotism and the rule that a Royal has to go screwed over Mussina and a couple of other pitchers.

I'll give you one very simple reason that Mussina is more deserving than Liriano: because Liriano was only being pitched for 5 or 6 innings maximum per start for a long time this season. Only now does he have the arm strength to go 8 or 9 innings. Mussina has been carrying the Yankees staff.

Verlander deserves to be on the team over Guillen's boy Buerhle, but you can't legitimately expect him to pass over his own player for a division rival. In the same vein I can't blame him for snubbing Mussina but I can blame the MLB for not putting him on the ballot for the last roster addition. Either one of those two could easily replace Kenny Rogers or Barry Zito btw.

The simple way to solve this problem is to open up pitching to fan voting, increase the roster size or get rid of the "every team gets an all-star" rule.

At least Guillen is not as bad as Torre. I think it was 2001 when Torre added every possible Yankee to the team including men's attendant Hector Gonzalez.

Liriano and Mussina deserve it over Rogers and Buerhle. And the fact that Mark Redman has to steal an all star spot from one of these guys is a disgrace.

if the sig says he's an all-star he's clearly deserving of one :)

They need to get rid of that "every team must be represented" rule. Liriano and Mussina should be on the roster over Buehrle and Redman. Giambi should also have made it over Konerko, but the gap between the two isn't large enough for me to really scream at Guillen for playing favorites (also because of Torre's history of playing favorites.)

Thank you. I was 50% serious and 50% joking when I requested it. I left it up to you whether or not you wanted to make it and since you did I will use it.

I figured you were joking, but Exit also requested Redman so at that point I made it.

I agree, like I said above I can't blame Guillen for choosing his ace over his division rival's. If I were the manager I'd choose my friend to be an all-star instead of my enemy as well.

So they should take it out of the manager's hands and let half of the pitchers be chosen by the fans and half (the "reserves") chosen by the skipper.

its a shame the NL gave turnbow a spot, he just isnt what he was last year. they should take d-bow out and put chris capuano in. he has been holding this injured staff together. just wait till the brew crew gets ben sheets and tomo ohka back, we'll be in good shape then. with all the injuries and bad luck the brewers have had this year, we're still only 3.5 outta the wild card and 5 out of the divison. with those 2 coming back soon, things could get very interesting........

The issue I have with the All Star game is that the wrong Royal go selected. I think it should have been Mark Grudzelanick. He is having a nice season and is yet to make an error playing a tough position. Robbie Cano had no business being named to the team and I'm glad he isn't playing. hink if Guillen takes Grudz over Redmin than Liriano is on the team and Hafner would make the team which he isn't going to do because Liriano is going to get voted on.

And for you Yankee fans that are crying that Mussina deserves on over Liriano beacuse of innings pitched... puhleaze. Are there any yuong pitchers that pitch more than 6 or 7 innings? The Phillies took Cole Hamels out after 2 innings today because of an hour rain delay.
