Did anyone else crack up at Mark Redman making the team? I think this means Iguchi is going for sure because Grudzalianakeliaek is out of the picture.

 

 

I think what Ozzie should have done, kind of as a symbolic protest of having to take a player from every team, is pick the worst Royal possible. Then, let him ride the pine the whole game. It would have been just as good as picking Redman.

 

Incidently, wasn't Redman a Marlin when Ozzie coached there? Maybe that's why he was picked.

I have a feeling Crede and Tad might take the cake....

If that's the case I doubt either will win.

Are they giving out the 10 names for the final 2 spots tonight??

 

I believe so

How does the best pitching staff in baseball get 1 pitcher in?

Besides the fact that his coach was the guy picking the rosters, can anyone here rationalize Buehrle (or you can just insert AL starter not named Johan Santana) making the team over Verlander?

 

Verlander is #1 in the AL in W's and #2 in the AL in ERA.

 

Seems like an royal screw job to me.

Wrong place for sympathy.

He's talking about the Tigers. The Sox don't have the best pitching in the league..

 

(and if your post isn't meant seriously, it went right over my head :P)

I hope Guillen purposely puts Mariano Rivera in the 6th inning just to hear people complain. Baseball Tonight crew (namely Phillips) made a point of having him close the 9th. "No respect to Bobby Jenks," though.

There is a case for a few guys to get in over Buehrle and Redmond.

I wasn't looking for sympathy. Not at all. I was looking for someone's rationalization? If there was one out there.

He plays for the Tigers and Ozzie was picking the rosters. Isn't that enough reason?

If Crede gets in that extra vote, the abundance of White Sox on the roster will hurt his chances of making the team.

ozzie already said Rivera will close it out, because he respects him that much.

AJ on the final ballot. No Crede or Iguchi. Bummer.

No way to rationalize it. It always happens. The all star game manager brings as many of his boys as he can. It is just as messed up as the AL starting line up full of Yankees and Red Sox.

I hope Jose only see 1 or 2 batters in the middle of the game. He pitches 2 days before the game. Don't want to mess him up.

So is Thome. Probably Jenks, Crede, Dye, Contreras, and Buerhle.

 

 

QUOTE(Felix @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 06:29 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
6.

WHITE SOX (6): Paul Konerko*, 1B; Jim Thome*, 1B; Jermaine Dye*, OF; Mark Buerhle*, P; Jose Contreras*, P; Bobby Jenks*, P
