I have a small army helping me with votes now . I have about 10 of my friends doing 25 votes a day the rest of the way. If everyone can take 10 minutes and do 25 a day , we can do this. Keep spreading the word.

Got my 25 in today.

 

I've voted about 35 times all together. Should get some more in tomorrow.

Just got 50 more this morning.

This is what I really hate about the All Star Game. Allowing the fans to vote may have some merit, but it's just way too easy to commit fraud. The best players don't get voted in... the ones with the most aggressive fans do. And MLB doesn't care. :headshake

I don't think there's anything you can do. People will find ways to get around it. I remember last year near the end, some Cubs fan found a bug in the system, posted it on the Cubs MLB board and that huge surge allowed Lee to overtake Pujols.

Got in about 450 votes, trying my best.

I've dropped 50 in, choosing first 7 guys in the Sox lineup.

Don't stop!

That's a helluva lot of free time you got there.

50 plus put in.

haha 2 put in...........but I'm going to work on more.

Another 50 from me.

It really takes no time.

 

I stuffed fifty ballots in ten minutes.

 

Another 50 from me.

 

I got about 40 in yesterday. I have my votes set to PK, Gooch, JD, Pods, Crede, and Pierzynski.

I wrote in Gload at 1st, Cintron at 2B, Ozuna at LF, Widger at C, and Juansky & Clutch at their normal positions.

After the A's series I figured we would have about 4 All Stars (Dye, Iguchi, Buehrle, and Contreras). Now I think we'll be lucky to have 2, with Dye and Iguchi (possibly even voted in). Thome will be hurt by not even being on the ballot and not playing 1B this year (NL park so no DH). I don't see any of our pitchers making the team at this point. A slight case could be made that Jenks could make the team but how many closers will Ozzie take on the team especially with Papelbon being a lock?

Contreras? (5-0, 2.53 ERA, .98 WHIP, .203 BAA)

There is no way Thome won't be an all star, I'm certain he'll be selected as a reserve.

Ozzie will bring the right guys to the all star game, so I have no worries about the voting stuff this year. The Yanks and Red Sox guys will win anyways due to fan base numbers, so no point in trying.

Just put in anouther 125

While you're at it, throw some love towards our man the Gooch. He's not that far behind, and he's got Japan behind him as well

 

EDIT: Also, if serious for voting for Dye, it may be wise to vote for two other crappy outfielders. Since you have to vote for 3, don't want to raise the count of those ahead of him

My point was that the number of Sox that should be there aren't as high as they were a couple weeks ago. (I'm taking a shot at our starting pitching)

PK - 3rd

Tad- 3rd

Joe - 3rd

AJ - 4th

Juan - 5th

Wow, I think I broke the system. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, it started giving me the exact same confirmation code like 20 times in a row. Then like 10 votes later, it decided my name was Colin Tremblay and I was born in 1992 (I even got Colin Tremblay's email address and zip code filled in.)
