Or vote for Scott Rolen, since he has been better and all.

[MidwayMonster31]

Oh yay. We're back to doing this again, where we make some crappy rookie look like an All-Star.

[Philliez01]

Or Pat Burrell.

[Giantsfan1080]

Well at least Wright is closer than Rolen even though both should be above. Polanco doesn't even deserve a sniff in the All Star Game.

Brett Gardner for All-Star game!

Brodeur, are you trying to seduce me?

I'm sure Brodeur was one of the many who made fun of the Reds for acquiring Rolen last year.

Not at this point in time.

I have no idea what you speak of, and I will not answer to this.

[Bengals78]

The only Reds fans who were against it were those who over value prospects (Stewart)

[Giantsfan1080]

Utley and Polanco going on the DL for the Phillies.

[Brodeur]

Utley is the most injury prone elite player of the decade.

Right, because there is no difference between Great American Ball Park and CitiField.

[Hines]

Mark Prior is working out for teams. I wouldn't mind the Pirates giving him a shot and seeing what he has left. Can't be any worse than what we already have.

How does Michael Young have more votes?

[Giantsfan1080]

OPS+ has Rolen over Wright by a point. I'm 99% sure it includes park factor.

[Hines]

I wonder which of Cutch or Meek will go to the ASG. Maybe they'll both go, but I doubt it.

[Jughead10]

I was half serious about Gardner. There have been rumblings around the Yankee beat writers that Girardi will take him with the 4 or 5 actual choices he's likely to make.

[Giantsfan1080]

There are probably about 15 OF's in the AL that I would take over Gardner just thinking about it quickly.

Rolen has better numbers on the road, but good try.

He hasn't really been elite since 1999.

Maybe, maybe not. If it works out (it may not), I think he might take him. Girardi is definitely going to play to win the game, and having Gardner on the bench is something he wants.

Well that's mainly because the injuries started piling up at the turn of the century.
