All Star Game Thread.
The 81st annual All Star Game starts in a few moments. Im just throwing up a quick thread, since it's my job, "The Game Day Gang. They're touring the facility and picking up slack." Yeah, I'm part of that. Anyway, David Price takes on Ubaldo Jimenez. Enjoy all the MFY / PHN FOX lovin'. Ty Wigginton will probably get into this game at some point, I'm thinking he will ground out, feel free to disagree.
THIS ONE COUNTS.
Lineups:
National League:
- SS Hanley Ramirez, Marlins
- 2B Martin Prado, Braves
- 1B Albert Pujols, Cardinals
- DH Ryan Howard, Phillies
- 3B David Wright, Mets
- LF Ryan Braun, Brewers
- CF Andre Ethier, Dodgers
- RF Corey Hart, Brewers
- C Yadier Molina, Cardinals
American League:
- RF Ichiro Suzuki, Mariners
- SS Derek Jeter, Yankees
- 1B Miguel Cabrera, Tigers
- CF Josh Hamilton, Rangers
- DH Vladimir Guerrero, Rangers
- 3B Evan Longoria, Rays
- C Joe Mauer, Twins

I somehow missed that Price was having THAT good of a year
I knew he was doing well, but for some reason i didnt think of him as deserving to start the all-star game. Obviously i was mistaken.
eh
that price kid, he’s alright

I applaud your dedication.
I honestly don’t care enough about the ASG to go out of my way to make a thread, let alone put in the lineups.
Also, I hate Joe Buck a lot.

Oh man, I hate Joe Buck more than almost anything
I’m hoping for a baseball rule of 3 type situation where Steinbrenner takes Joe Buck and Julio Lugo with him.
McCarver is also bad, yes.
I can vaguely tolerate Buck in football season because I don’t have too much against Troy Aikman as a commentator. Buck/McCarver is simply intolerable. Buck’s gotta be the worst announcer who is continually forced down everyone’s throats.

Meh
They said that about batting helmets in the beginning. This is a way to get them onto players and get them used to them. Looks smaller than the original model too.

I'm for the NL this year too
As long as my NL team has a chance to make the World Series and the Orioles don’t, I have to support the NL as long as they continue the stupid practice of giving home field advantage to the winner.
I almost want to do that
but I need to continually show my friends how much worse the NL is than the AL. Not that the ASG really proves anything, but they think it does.

if he hadn't gotten the out, you've got men on 1st and 3rd with 1 out
get the out at first and you have man on 3rd with 2 outs. it’s just a better situation.

I'd like to see him play.
Cal, Miggy, Flat Breezy, and AJ have all acquitted themselves rather well at the Yankee-Red Sox Alliance Classic while representing bad Orioles teams.
If Wiggy gets a hit, or Steinbrenner forbid, the game-winning RBI, maybe for one night the rest of the world doesn’t think the Orioles suck quite so much.
You've got a good point there.
I had the good fortune to watch the late innings of last year’s All-Star Game in a mostly-outdoors hotel bar in Honolulu. When AJ made the difference, there was not a person in that bar who didn’t know that I was a huge O’s fan. Great memory.

He’s consistently pitches later than Ohman. 57% high leverage situations for Thornton vs 37% for Ohman, and 80% of innings pitched in the 8th or later vs 72%, and Thornton has face about 30 more batters.
That was a weak-ass throw home.

not sure swisher is, either, but he’s got wiggy beat.
