Who says we don't have a fanbase?

They just can’t afford to leave their house apparently.

He should be in...

And I imagine he’ll have a great time.

I don't think his swing is tailored to the Derby

Having watched a lot of his BP sessions this year. Like BJ, much of his power comes from his wrists, which lets the pitcher do the work. I certainly don’t want him changing anything.

YES!

This is great. Hopefully he gets in game.

Awesome

Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; but if a thing is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

We couldn't power our way to David Wright as the NL rep.

So we 1/2 fail

by kericr on Jul 10, 2008 5:37 PM EDT reply actions

But we 1/2 pass.

by R.J. Anderson on Jul 10, 2008 5:37 PM EDT up reply actions

1/2 a win is still good

It’s not like we didn’t try or anything

This article sums it up best

http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20080710&content_id=3107903&vkey=allstar2008&fext=.jsp

My favorite line: “Giambi, a non-winner in 2003, joined Travis Hafner (2004, 2006), Frank Thomas (2003, 2004), Billy Wagner (2005, 2006) and Brandon Webb (2005, 2007) as the only players who have made multiple bids without winning.”

I would insist that Giambi remains a ‘non-winner’ to this very day.
