    Lowell not being a starter is a joke.

    Lowell I think is leading NL in homers and he backs up Rolen? As much as I want the fans to have a say so this is a glaring travesty. That and Rolen can snap a leg ANYTIME soon (coming from a disgruntled Phillie fan that will never forget the screw job he put on the Phillies)

    Just proves 2 things..........1) Fans need less input to the vote (see Matsui's & Rolen's selection).

    2) Guaranteeing each team a spot is absurd. (A. Benitez over Willis ??? But the problem is, there is no one else worth thinking about on the worst team in baseball.) Teams as bad as the Mets and the Tigers should be represented by their trainers and/or locker room management staff....not actual players.


    On side notes...........I realize that "Chicks dig the long ball" but I'd rather see Sean Casey than Aaron Boone as a rep from my Reds....but Guillen was the MOST deserving candidate.

    G HR RBI OBP SLG AVG
    S Casey 81 9 42 .351 .429 .299
    A Boone 85 15 51 .331 .469 .267
    J Guillen 71 17 44 .404 .650 .350


    Also, there seem to be more closers on both pitching staffs than I remember from previous games.

    I've watched Matsui play everyday and I'll tell you he deserves to make this team, but probably not as a starter. He plays very well in the field, and is even playing CF for Bernie Williams and doing an outstanding job. It took him some time to adjust, but now he is playing unbelievable. If there is a runner in scoring position he will get him in, hence the high RBI amount with not so many home runs.

    The fact that the game actual means something now should have done away with each team getting a representative and with the fan voting. Home field advantage is an extremely important thing in the World Series lately and now the NL might be depending on Benitez in the bottom of the 9th to hold the AL sluggers...
