I guess Miggy isn't feeling up to it.

Not a bad choice. Now old arse Cuddyer needs to get hurt and we are in better shape

Yeah, Cuddyer is a buddy pick. Alvarez should have been in, or Brown or Goldschmidt. Or Puig if he makes the team.

Oh well... it's just the HR derby.

This team Captain shite is for the birds, why not let fans or other players vote for the participants?

Cuddyer is an odd pick. Brown or Goldschmidt make way more sense.

I know he plays in CO but Cuddyer has the 2nd highest avg HR distance. Don't underestimate OMS(old man strength)

Cuddyer isn't a slouch at all... he has more HR than Wright or Harper.

But Alvarez is the better choice.

What if they vote in guys who don't want to do it, like Miggy?

I'd start at the top of the HR list... hey, you're leading the NL in home runs, want to do the derby? Cool. Hey, you're second, want to do the derby?

And so on through all the players until the team is set. Tiebreaker being fewer AB gets first call.

I want to see a pitcher picked. Like Zambrano or Gallardo.

Y'all still actually watch this shite? This is like putting Drew Brees and Brady out in the yard throwing balls through a twenty five yard target. They will do it over and over.

Bunch of juice monkeys swinging at god damn meatball pitches.

All star everything baseball sucks arse now.

Thanks, IndependentGeorge, for that dynamite drop-in. Posting school sure is paying off.

Thanks


Just funny to see some grown men on a forum getting their panties in a wad, over the most pointless thing in baseball. Everyone is bashing Cuddyer but most good overall hitters in the MLB can join that derby. Just make it a 60 man field and stretch the competition out for three days.
