July 11, 20196 yr I tuned in to watch a minute or two and watched the whole thing. Pace of the game was excellent and I really enjoyed the miking Our pitchers would do well to realize working fast is in general a characteristic of good pitchers.

Like Billy Martin and others have said, not every team should be represented. If your 20 out at the break and flat out suck, it is hard to justify having a player off it with a more deserving one sitting at home just because every team needs to be included. (Part of the justification at one time was so that fans in that market would actually watch to see said player.) 2. Fans are only allowed to vote one time, just like in an election. This eliminates the big market (i.e. Yankees, Red Sox) fans from stuffing and inflating things. One fan = one vote. You can't legislate against fan stupidity but you can also help limit it. Just my opinion. I disagree. The game is only for the fans to see their favorite players. It's purely for fun and entertainment. The players should be only who the fans want. I do agree there should only be 1 vote per fan.

I don't understand why this imbecilic plan of stuffing the ballot box ever got started.

The game is laid back yet despite meaning nothing the players are still out there trying to win. Watching the players on tv is one thing but like I said in another post, being at the HRD and ASG is another level. You don't have to worry about watching Tilson hit or the pitcher hit because every single guy is great. It was quite the experience last year.
