You're out of you're mind if you think that.

Fukodome 91/326 59 7 36 8 133 .279 .383

Bay 98/341 64 19 53 6 181 .287 .387

Nady 98/305 43 12 56 1 160 .321 .377

Mclouth 103/367 69 19 65 11 199 .281 .357

 

Basically the entire Pirates outfield is better than Fukodome. But I guess your right. He doesn't suck. Its still a popularity contest. I see you have no response for Soriano. I like how you conviently left that part out.

Good thread. Here's something on my mind all week.

 

The MLB all-star game. As a NL fan and a fan of the Chicago Cubs, and i never liked the all-star game to mean as much as HOME FIELD advantage but i can't believe how DUMB the rules are.

 

First off all, last year NL champion manager is the all-star coach. WHY? Who gives about LAST season THIS season. He's always been a horrible manager, last year he had a bad start and finished great... great. Now he's sucking again and managing the team that is playing for HOME FIELD for my cubs and the other NL powers? Second of all, he personally selects Brad Lidge, the biggest LOSER as a closer. The guy has given up more homers in the 9th then ANY current pitcher in the majors. He was thrown out of Houston after like 10 chances and in Philly, sure he's good but come on, half a season? Other players have just as good of stats and they should have had another starter in there.

 

Now, how fair is it, that players such as STARS Aramis Ramirez, Fukudome, Lance Berkman and even Utley play so little in the game, yet the NL had an "ALL STAR" outfield of Ryan Ludwick, Nate McLouth and Corey Hart for like 7 effing innings???? And let's not forget Christian GUZMAN at 3rd base? Dan Uggla who can't even get a simple grounder, 3 times..... these are the players who are trying to players on teams like the Mets, Phillies, Cubs and DBacks the HOME FIELD advantage in the world series? These bums? Please.

 

Rules gotta change.

 

Two changes i'd make, one, make like a NHL rule, say, on JUNE 20th, best team in NL and AL sends their manager to the all-star game, not the lucky manager from the previous season.

 

Two, if the game goes into extra innings, FIELD players can be re-used. So, no more GUZMAN in 3rd, we'd have Aramis Ramirez. No MORE Dan Uggla at 2nd base, we'll have Chase Utley. And so on. What a joke.

 

The format is now like 8-0 in favor of the AL since they made it "worth" something.... umm wtf? That's fair?

 

Btw, American league is like 12-2 in the first 2 games of the WC since this was a rule. Total joke.

 

Rant over. See ya next Thursday.

 

 

Fukodome sucks. Its a popularity contest. How the hell else would Soriano get in?

I hate getting on the train in the morning and the guy with the nasty as F dreds sits right in front of me and he smells like piss and other unmentionables. Then he starts playing w/ them and the seem to always come close to me. Then usually at the next stop the old guy with the red sores on his hands sits next to me and scratches them till I can see dead skin flaking in the morning sun flying all over the place and I know that stuff is just going right up my nose along with old stinky heads hair smell. It seems no matter what train I am on or what seat I sit in they both are there. It is as if the both have this plan that they will find me and sit all around me. I could get up by the train is so crowded its almost impossible to move around.
