Joe Buck

Are you kidding me?  ABSOFRICKINGLUTLY!  A good fielder only has a couple errors a year.  So Miggy might have driving in a few more runs but also cost his team a few more runs.  The way I look at it who hits better... JUSTIN... who has more power... MIGGY... who drives more in... MIGGY... who has a better glove... JUSTIN.  So all things being equal best record should control.  It does in pretty much every sport.  Whoever has best record of all-star break coachs the NBA teams plus if your team is doing well you get more all-stars in EVERY SPORT basically.  Miggy deserves to be 2nd but not the starter because offensive stats is NOT EVERTHING!

You are REALLY not comparing apples to apples here.  What would Evan's closest competition for the 3B spot?  If he stats are near the same and he has the same impact on his team as Longoria then YES I AGREE Longoria should not start in place of that other person.  But obviously you cannot find that.  My guess is Beltre is his closest competition and you might have a legit argument that at this point in time Beltre should start of Longoria.

sparky:    isnt joe buck your Catcher.. 

All Star players who have equal to or more errors than Cabrera.

Adrian Gonzalez 10. Adrian Beltre 13. Evan Longoria 10. Hanley Ramirez 10. Chase Utley 9.

Cabrera is not even bad in the field. 9 errors in 70 games

Michael Young and Beltre are pretty equal.

Young - 50 Runs - 10 HRs - 50 RBIs - .318 BA

Longoria - 46 Runs - 12 HRs - 52 RBIs - .301 BA

Beltre - 36 Runs - 11 HRs - 51 RBIs - .339 BA

Johnny Buck is my catcher

as long as fuckbama throws out the 1st pitch all is good in the hoods   

Okay so that is 4 people of a total of 16 positional players.  So even by your own admission it is rare for all-star starters to have that many errors.  Plus I find it odd that you don't think that a strong glove should be even a consideration.

And there goes Buck again saying that, basically, Polanco doesn't deserve it over Wright. But what about Rolen? He's been, well, rolling.

Wright has been great lately...but Rolen deserves some recognition.

My point is WHO CARES. No one gives a flyin F about errors when it comes to all star voting. You fill your team with players who make no errors and ill fill my team with MASHERS who hit 40 home runs and knock in 120 runs every year while batting 320.

Jessie I love you but your nuts if you want Morneau up at the plate in the 3rd inning with the bases juiced over Miguel Cabrera. You know what the best part of this all is....

THEY ARE BOTH ON MY SQUAD BITCHES

joe buck bought some person.........who knows?

Don't forget about Chip Caray. He makes listening to TBS in the postseason unbearable. He's a moron.

Kyle if you put it that way I would agree with you because I have consistently said that Justin Moreanu is the most uncluch player in MIN Twins history.  That being said I just think if you look at his body of work this year he deserves it over Miggy.  But yes Miggy DESERVES to be on the All-Star team.  I always get my dander up when people say Twins don't deserve to be All-Stars.

Well I NEVER said the big fella shouldent be an all star because he does oever every other 1B in the AL. All im saying is Cabrera has more home runs, rbis, runs and stolen bases. Morneau has a better average and a better glove. Miggy wins with a score of 4-2

Well we agree they both deserve to be on the squad but are just going to have to disagree on who should start.  I see you point and I see that now you see mine about the fielding even though you don't completely agree but in the end we have two stubbon people who could proabably argue about this all night.  LOL!

I just got into an argument with a college buddy of my yesterday about Justin vs. Youk.  He was trying to tell me Youk should start over Justin in the all-star game mostly because Justin is Canadian or at least that was basically the best reason he could give me.  I have to say at least you had better reasons.  This guy is a really bad homer though.

No real reason.  Certainly not avoiding you guys as I always do enjoy talking with you.  I guess I just always in the sports forums.  But perhaps I should stop by more.  I will make a concerted effort to do so.

As it relates to the trade offer.  Princy always has a GREAT 2nd half so that is why I am a little hesitant.  What could you package with Justin for Prince?

Fuck the All Star Game  popularity contest let's hear more about this. I thought he only fucked Troy Aikman.
