Yep, they said it. Kruk said that Halladay should be the A.L. All-Star Game starter.

Wow, some national respect for our sox.

 

 

I think buehrle should start.

gammons picked Mark

Please be Mark or Jon I'm still mad at roy for winning CY in 2003 over E-Lo :banghead

Even though it'd be nice to see a White Sox start the AS game again, at this point i think Roy Halladay is most deserving.

Why?

Yea his ERA is like a run lower but still......lets se how he fares against the Scrubs

Explain yourself.

He already faced the Cubs

Why?

 

Halladay

 

10-4, 2.53 ERA, 11 QS, 0.95 WHIP

 

Buehrle

 

8-1, 2.67 ERA, 11 QS, 1.05 WHIP

 

Garland

 

12-2, 3.40 ERA, 10 QS, 1.09 WHIP

 

and seeing as Halladay also has more IP and Ks i'd say he's more worthy.

 

BTW, Kenny Rogers should get some consideration too.

Ditto.

 

Buehrle and Garland are on a much better team however which will probably push them past Halladay in many peoples minds.

with those stats i think buehrle should start. I also stated that earlier.

Buehrle and Garland arnt strikeout pitchers either.

but garland and mark are the pitching the best for the best team in the baseball

Strikeouts are any extremely sexy stat. Everyone loves the K know matter how overrated it might be.

but garland  and mark are the pitching the best for the best team in the baseball

That sentence makes absolutely no sense. I guess you're saying:

 

"However Buehrle and Garland and pitching the best for the team with the best record in baseball."

 

Halladay has better stats this season and he's doing it on a worse team in a division the "experts" feel is one of the best in baseball.

 

I would love to see Buehrle start the All-Star game but at this point if you're going by stats and actually want to start the most deserving player Halladay gets the nod.

Thank you very much.

 

 

Run support:

 

Jon Garland: 7.11

 

Mark Buehrle: 4.00

 

Roy Halladay: 3.71

 

A main factor in pitchers picking up wins is runs is run support, thus making Halladay's 10 wins ever more impressive.

Whose team is the best in the bigs? That plays with arguably the best division in the bigs? That has to make you more deserving, helping your team to the best record in the bigs.

I think they will give the nod to Garland with another win or two. The hottest pitcher, on the best team, that is winning with great pitching. Makes for a good story and entertainment is what it's about.

 

I would not have a complaint with any of the three. It's a nice honor for the player, but we're taking shades of greatness so far.

 

It may also hinge a bit on how the rotation shapes up.

So even though buehrle has been out performed by halladay this year you think buehrle shoudl start?

It's called being a homer and ignoring obvious statistical advantages for a non White Sox player.

I think if Garland gets it, a lot of national fan attention will come our way in the 2nd half.

Isn't wins what's all about? I would rank Mark actually third of these guys. But seriously, isn't there a Red Sox or Yankee that could start?

Halladay has the stats to be the starter but I hope either Garland or Buehrle are chosen. Konerko got f***ed by steroid-boy Giambi, who was hitting .240 at the time last year, so I wouldn't have a problem with it.

Halladay and Buehrle have been the two best pitchers in the al this year, however Halladay has been a bit better and because of this he should be the starter. As I've stated before I'd prefer neither Mark or Jon pitch in that game but I'm sure both of them will.
