July 3, 201610 yr Sale (starter) and Quintana Eaton on final ballot and will not win. Edited July 3, 201610 yr by staxx
July 3, 201610 yr QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 10:00 AM) It'll be Chris Sale and Chris and Sale and Sale, Chris. That's all folks. Mark Yeah those 3 guys and that's all folks. Q will by bypassed for a reliever in the best Q under rated tradition.
July 4, 201610 yr 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. Edited July 4, 201610 yr by caulfield12
July 4, 201610 yr QUOTE (raBBit @ Jul 4, 2016 -> 12:00 PM) I don't know about that, Sale was a bigger snub last year. Well played.
July 4, 201610 yr QUOTE (Charlie Haeger's Knuckles @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 12:45 PM) Chris Sale and Tim Anderson Not even close to enough sample size.
July 4, 201610 yr 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.
July 4, 201610 yr 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.
July 4, 201610 yr 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.
July 4, 201610 yr QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 4, 2016 -> 09:37 AM) Not even close to enough sample size. 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, Abraham Lincoln

July 5, 201610 yr Anyone know Sales start schedule before ASG (as it stands now)? Would he be able to pitch?
July 5, 201610 yr 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.
July 5, 201610 yr QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 12:47 PM) Anyone know Sales start schedule before ASG (as it stands now)? Would he be able to pitch? He's scheduled for Friday. He would be on normal rest for the All Star game.
July 5, 201610 yr QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 02:00 PM) I have a hard time believing both the manager and players will leave Q out. Eh, Donaldson doesn't think high of him.
July 5, 201610 yr QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 01:02 PM) He's scheduled for Friday. He would be on normal rest for the All Star game. Oh well that's easy. I didn't realize the game was next week. Whoops.
July 5, 201610 yr QUOTE (raBBit @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 11:35 AM) 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. 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.
