Surprisingly I got 1 above average player so far

Pat Neshek RP 2-0 2.50 ERA 39.2 IP 13 BB 49 K

Just a reminder for the managers, we do have a 1 player from every team rule, I believe we have expanded rosters as well, 30 I'm thinking. JP, do you remember?

Abreu 309/413/456
Branyan .292/.363/.627
Cust 289/375/574
Granderson 283/356/466
Pena 254/392/540

Cliff LEe 3.49 ERA, 65K/21BB 6-2, 2 SHO

Dan Haren 13-3, 1.43 ERA, 151.1 IP, 6 CG, 4 SHO, 156 SO/ 31 BB

Matt Holliday .305/.380/.538, 20 HR, 64 R, 72 RBI, 15 SB
Evan Longoria .272/.357/.538, 17 HR, 41 R, 62 RBI, 6 SB
Bryan Myrow .344/.429/.477

Wow, glad to see their is the mercy rule for one player from each team. I am thinking atleast one of these guys should be worthy.

Jose Lopez 2B .320/.359/.455 104 Hs 21 Ds 7 HRs 38 RBIs
Jose Guilen LF/RF .287/.340/.553 54 Hs 9 Ds 13 HRs 31 RBIs
Manny Ramirez LF/DH .285/.384/.588 65 Hs 19 Ds 16 HRs 45 RBIs

Sadly, I have no pitching worthy of an All Star appearance. Hopefully Jered Weaver will have better luck next year.

What if I am blind, am I just suppose to rely on the screaming fans that chant for King Felix or Albert the Great? Or the pure silence that comes upon us when Mo takes the mound? Or maybe the amazing jeers that are sounded for A-Roid?

I am sure we all know that most of those players are on the top 10 of the overall statistical breakdown but why should the onus be on us to read through that, you could have atleast put up some stats.

I really don't have one....closest I can nominate:

Xavier Nady 295/342/502, 11hr, 44rbi, 38runs
Ichiro! 297/343/406, 6hr, 43runs

Scot Shields 5-1, 2 saves, 1.97 ERA, (208/302/344 against)

Exactly what I was thinking...

Raul Ibanez .327(6th)/.398(4th)/.631(1st) 109 hits (t-5th) 22 HR (2nd) 67 RBI (6th) 62R 9 triples (1st)
Joey Votto .315/.383/.500 109 hits (tied 5th) 13 HR 46 RBI 76R (1st by 11R) 10SB
Jayson Werth .302/.374/.571(5th) 100 hits 23 HR (t-1st) 75 RBI (2nd) 57R 7SB
Victor Martinez .297/.367/.471 91 hits 13 HR 48 RBI 49R DL'd but worth noting he deserves it
Jake Peavy (8-6) 3.60 ERA 127.1 IP 129K 2CG 1SO same with Jake

Not many choices from Seattle these days, but here's my list:

George Sherrill, 3.51 ERA, 1 - 1, 12 Saves, 11.4 K/9
Ryan Rowland-Smith, 2.66 ERA, 8 - 6

Asdrubral Cabrera, SS, .309/.403/.506,
Nyjer Morgan, CF, .304/.346/.380
David Freese, 3b, .303/.345/.486
Lance Berkman, 1b, .292/.378/.479
Ben Zobrist, 2b, .289/.382/.461

Michael Saunders .295/.362 /.502 - 14 hr's
Blake DeWitt .291/.385/.418
John Bowker .313/.387/.444 - 21 2b, 107 hits, 58 RBI
Philip Hughes 3.72 ERA, 119 K's

So is this All-Star game going to be played? Hell, are the rosters even going to get picked?

If not, I nominate myself to manage the AL since the All-Star game is in Anaheim and I would be more than happy to see what an All-Star team can do in that stadium, especially for future reference when my own lineup will compare. *smiles*
