So, MLB fans, the All-Star game isn't for a while yet, but it's not too early to vote for players. Has anyone else voted yet or plan to? My ballot was:
AL:
1B- David Ortiz, Boston Red Sox*
2B- B.J. Upton, Tampa Bay Devil Rays
SS- Derek Jeter, New York Yankees
3B- Alex Rodriguez, New York Yankees
C- Jorge Posada, New York Yankees
OF- Vlad Guerrero, Los Angeles Angels
OF- Ichiro Suzuki, Seattle Mariners
OF- Magglio Ordoñez, Detroit Tigers
NL:
1B- Prince Fielder, Milwaukee Brewers
2B- Chase Utley, Philadelphia Phillies
SS- Jose Reyes, New York Mets
3B- Miguel Cabrera, Florida Marlins
C- Bengie Molina, San Francisco Giants
OF- Carlos Beltran, New York Mets
OF- Alfonso Soriano, Chicago Cubs
OF- Matt Holliday, Colorado Rockies**
* I was going to write in Kevin Youkilis instead, but I figure the players will vote him onto the team, anyway. Really, I think it says more about a players abilities if the players vote him in, as opposed to fans who tend to vote for the biggest names.
** Yes, really.
For those who haven't voted yet and plan to, remember that you can vote up to 25 times. And remember to vote Jorge Posada for AL catcher!

Fixed. Why the hell wasn't Placido Polanco on that list? He's hitting .343 compared to Upton's .320 something.

Polanco:
AVG- .343; HR- 1; RBI- 33; SB- 1; OBP- .384
Upton:
AVG- .320; HR- 9; RBI- 31; SB- 13; OBP- .396
I wouldn't say that Polanco is a better offensive player than Upton, who gets overlooked for being a Devil Ray. They both deserve votes, though.

No way. The Colts only got to go last year because the Chargers beat themselves. I have no doubt the Chargers could have beat the Colts and gone to the big game.
This is a different year and the Chargers are again going to be a force to be reconed with, even more than last year. Don't write them off because of past failures. You as a Colts fan should know about that all to well.
Once the Chargers took themselves out of the running, I was happy that The Colts went and won last year. They deserved to win it after being so good for so long, and I like to root AFC when possible.

They should have flooded Lansdowne Street for the kayakers so they can waist their time. Bonds is no match for the Green Monster.
