Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Sherrill makes it as O's All-Star rep

George Sherrill has made the American League All-Star team as the only Oriole on the squad. Congrats, George, that's wonderful, we love ya.

But Brian Roberts needs your help, everyone! Brian Bob's on the final vote list for the last spot on the AL roster. Do your duty and go spam 25 votes for Brian. He won't win, but he deserves the votes. He should be there.

DO IT TO IT, GANG!

MLB needs to update their widgets

Otherwise, I’m torn between giving my NL vote to Andruw Jones, Bobby Abreu, or Nomar.

those are past winners

The widget (which kinda sucks) is just a portal to MLB.com.

We need to coordinate

our vote with a NL site.

I say Corey Hart. So we work a deal with the MIL site that they vote for B-Rob when they vote for Hart, and we vote for Hart when we vote for B-Rob.

Yeah, that's a great idea.

If we could get an NL site to vote for BRob he might actually have a shot at winning. I wouldn’t have a problem voting for Corey Hart. EVERYBODY GET OUT THERE AND CAST YOUR 25 VOTES FOR BROB, he deserves it.

I’m voting Pat Burrell in the NL because I think he deserves it. That guy has taken a lot of shit considering he’s good.

Philly does have more fans...

Honestly, I don’t care which NL team. I just want to maximize the vote for B-Rob.

I am voting for Pat

because not only is he killing it this season, he’s a Phil.

> 25 votes?

I just spent the past half hour voting for Roberts. I think that you get more than 25.

by patientoriolesfan on Jul 6, 2008 7:08 PM EDT reply actions  

You definitely get more than 25

what's the upper limit?

I’ve definitely more than 25. Now I’m getting tired of voting over and over again.

Wolf, wolf, wolf.

I dont know if there is a limit

Voting for Roberts has been my job today since summers at accounting firms are slow.

Hey, they updated the widget!

Now it has this year’s options!

added the widget to my facebook page...

and voted multiple times via text. god bless unlimited messaging plans.

vote for Brian....

Vote Brian not only because hes one of our most beloved players, but because hes clearly having the best season in the lot of five.

Jose Guillen sucks.

Longoria has an identical OPS, but is a 3B

Giambi/Dye’s power numbers are better, but their OPS’s are only like .050-.070 higher than Brian’s. Thats a decent amount but no where near significant.

Brian leads the league in triples and doubles, has 24 steals, plays a important defensive position, and has a very good OPS of .866.

If justice prevails, Roberts will be in the game.

by UMterp08 on Jul 6, 2008 9:46 PM EDT reply actions  

it's true

Brian has the best VORP of the five. It’s close between him, Dye and Giambi, but Brian wins. VOTE BRIAN
