Voting for 1st Month MLB MVP

Do it here, so to speak:

http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/blog/big_league_stew/post/BLS-poll-So-who-s-your-MVP-for-the-season-s-fi?urn=mlb,160644

Not surprisingly, A. Pujols is leading. He's pretty good. In fact, I think he could play regularly in the American League.

Anybody wanna vote for a 1st Month MBP? Y'axe me, there have been some fine months by individual Birds, but we're at such a low ebb at the moment that I find it hard to get excited over this, which is, of course, exactly what SHE sa...oh, forget it.

In other fill-up-the-minimum-word-requirement news, there's an all points Major Media Feeding Frenzy Alert, as today begins the season's first Crooshul See-rees pitting Tito and the Dimsox vs. The Most Storied Franchise in Professional Sports Run by Jerks. The  former are hot, having just swept 1 outta 4 from their FLA daddy, which is just about to spank our arses, too.

Yes, we invade The Trop tonight, and judging by yesterday's coverage of the Sawx game there, the locals stil haven't invested in a couple large cans of green spray paint to make the rug look, well, less like a rug on TV, at least. I remember last year a visiting Rays fan, outraged that anyone could critizice their venue, asked me on this site whether I'd actually *been* to The Trop-- to which I somehow resisted replying "Do you actually have color TV? Have you looked at your field on ithe screen? If you're going to insist on having your fine team play on a pool table, you could at least make the felt *green* so we can share the illusion." I wonder if the new-stadium bond issue is alive again...

Anyway, if the guy comes back, I won't hesitate this time. Go O's!

Pujols would get my vote also

This guy is dominating at the plate so far this season. His fielding is average at best. Can you imagine the feeding frenzy when his fielding days are done and he comes over the the AL as a DH. No ball park will hold him.

I consistently read that Puols

Is one of the three best defensive 1Bmen in the sport. I wouldn’t hold my breath to see him as a DH, and in fact would not be surprised to see him be a lifetime Cardinal.

I'm a Pujols repellent

The past two seasons I went to see the Nationals play the Cardinals because I wanted to see Pujols and BOTH times he was out of the lineup. The 2nd time he at least pinch hit in the 9th so I got to see him for a minute. He struck out. I’m hoping to try again this year.

I had *great* seats for a Giants game last time I was in SF and, naturally, they gave Barry the day off.

Which may have been why great seats were available, we speculated…

Barry Bonds

I was at Camden Yards to watch Bonds send one out. I even took a video of it.

I flew out to Coors Field to watch Bonds

I guess 3 years ago and they had to bring police into the stands in LF to prevent fans from throwing stuff at him. Even little kids were yelling obscenities at him. I was appalled. Regardless of what you think or feel no one should treat a ballplayer like that. Personally I have no opinion regarding his steroid use because it seems a great percent of players were doing it and it is conceivable MLB knew about it and did nothing to police themselves. Anyway. Bonds was a great player regardless.
