You know, given the results to this moment
I can’t help but wonder if we’re being realistic or partisan in the voting here.
Yeah, there aren't any huge power guys like Fielder or Howard.

Considering just few years (07), you had a list which featured:
Prince Fielder, Ryan Howard, Albert Pujols, Justin Morneau, Vladimir Guerrero, Magglio Ordóñez, Matt Holliday,
It's been a while, but...
Ortiz knows how to really slug the ball. Nobody else in the competition has hit 40 homers in a season, let alone 50. With BP fastballs, I think he’ll find his swing.

I'm not saying he had a good shot
but at the time he had 60% of the voes, and I’m pretty sure not a 60% chance of winning
That's true,
Aren’t they popular or something? That and being musically uninteresting is usually the criteria for these sorts of things.
I guess they are kind of popular right now for the song they just sang...
Not nearly as popular as they were back in like 2000 or 01 when they release drops of jupiter.

No man should ever wear pants that tight....
but on a bright note I think him and Jeter buy their lip gloss at the same place.

Only about 10% can pull it off, the rest look like tinks.

Morgan Quote:
New Orleans, LA: Do you think there is a chance the Phillies will win the NL East?
Joe Morgan: Yes there is a chance, they are only a couple games behind. They are playing well now and the real problem for the Mets is if they end up in a tie, the Phillies win. Right now the lead says they are 1.5 ahead, but in my opinion they are only a .5 game ahead. If the Mets tie, they lose.
WWSD ?
that guy is awful
(Here comes Jesse Jackson to call me something bad)
The certified ambassador of all things good and great, here at OTM.
Joe Morgan: Batting average and earned run average and this OPS stuff they do. OPS doesn’t tell you anything except about the individual. The same as the other stats. It doesn’t tell you anything about the team. A .300 average doesn’t help you win games, run production does.
Joe Morgan: I’m not saying those numbers don’t mean anything, I’m saying they’re overglorified.
WWSD ?
another
You know I think wins are the most important stat to judge a pitcher by. There’s a big difference between pitching just well enough to win and pitching just bad enough to lose.

He found his swing, so I expect a good 2nd half.
But it doesn’t have anything to do with this HR derby performance.

a good hitter takes good BP, so you're right in a way.
I’m just saying that this derby isn’t gonna make him better because he already found his stroke.
