Michael Bourn is the worst All Star ever 

Post#1 » by PEYTON_GOAT » Mon Jul 5, 2010 3:55 am

.260 BA, 1 HR, 20RBI, .336 OBP, .341 SLG, OPS of less than .680 and this guy is an All Star?

Every team probably has multiple guys on the bench with better numbers than this, just sad.

Mark Redman was pretty bad.

As for John Buck I can't really bitch about him on the team. Victor Martinez is on the DL, he's pretty much the next best option.

The Whole thing is a farce, might as well name it the Red Sux/ Skankees celebration game.

Infante's selection ......geez

At least he'll come off the bench though.....just like he does now a lot of the time
Basketball is driven by three principles:

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability

Manuel said he specifically wanted Infante so he had somebody who can drop down a bunt.

Gosh darnit, I sure can't wait for the Bunt Derby that's the night before the game.

What Yankee or Red Sox player that is in the ASG doesn't deserve to be there?
