Sale is a lock, but I think Quintana and Eaton have chances.

Sale (starter) and Quintana

 

Eaton on final ballot and will not win.

Only Sale will make it, and he'll start the game.

Q better make it.

It'll be Chris Sale and Chris and Sale and Sale, Chris.

 

That's all folks.

Yeah those 3 guys and that's all folks. Q will by bypassed for a reliever in the best Q under rated tradition.

If Q doesn't make it that could possibly qualify for biggest snub of all time.

All six ESPN baseball experts picked their teams and they all had Sale but maybe only one Quintana.

 

One had Eaton, the other with Adam as the last one cut.

 

There's no way we got 3 guys, and I think two would be pretty fortunate. The Twins will have Nunez, the Rays probably Longoria or Pearce, the Angels with Trout and the A's need to have one representative as well (maybe R.Hill or a reliever).

 

They're having the same problems with the Indians, everyone has Salazar, but Carrasco/Kluber/Tomlin and even Bauer merit some consideration.

 

And he's still got that record under .500 and an ERA a touch over 3. Don't think he's automatic, because his ERA in June was 4+ (despite that lousy string of run support for like 9 consecutive starts).

 

Plus, Yost will pick his own guys like K.Herrera...and obviously Wade Davis.

I don't know about that, Sale was a bigger snub last year.

 

Well played.

Sale with maybe Eaton as a dark horse.

Chris Sale and Tim Anderson

Not even close to enough sample size.

Also, you've got Bogaerts, Lindor, Correa and Manny Machado at that same SS position.

 

Tough competition, although officially Machado's still a 3B until this year...even then you've got Machado/Donaldson/Longoria.

I'd say Sale and maybe Robertson. The Sox bats prevented Q from making it. Some people still look at W/L record no matter what the Sabes people think.

It's amazing to me that it's 2016 and there's a possibility that Q won't make the Allstar team and unfortunately I bet he won't.

I'm not very familiar with Deadpool but doesn't he have a sense of humor much like Spiderman ? You seem to have a little trouble picking up on people's lightheartedly joking comments.

 

Take care,

Welcome to Soxtalk Abe! PS love your work on emancipation!

Anyone know Sales start schedule before ASG (as it stands now)? Would he be able to pitch?

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 12:35 PM)
Rosenthal made an ASG roster and Q was his snub. I wouldn't be surprised to see Quintana added after injury/people dropping out because of timing.

 

I have a hard time believing both the manager and players will leave Q out.

He's scheduled for Friday. He would be on normal rest for the All Star game.

Eh, Donaldson doesn't think high of him.

Oh well that's easy. I didn't realize the game was next week. Whoops.

Agreed. I think it's BS if he doesn't make the initial roster, but he probably won't. Would be irate if he doesn't make it after subs are needed.
