    Pretty much what I thought. $20.00 wasted.

    the sheen from his afro is not going to help things once he works up a sweat.

    ok according to the odds, howard is the chalk with prince right behind. Pujols not bad odds at over 2:1.

    If i was laying actual money for ROI, Id take morneau. hes as strong as anyone and pretty tall for slapping em in the bay with ease being a lefty.

    4:1 so he'd be the value pick. Although pooholios has something to prove after a human year for him thus far.

    1. Guerrero
    2. Howard
    3. Pujols
    4. Morneau
    5. Fielder (would be higher, but I don't think he can go multi-round)

    the wisdom of the crowd called that one.


    cheers to the 4 or so of us that called it.

    jeers to baseball for having the damn derby last 12 hours.

    as someone who watches the Giants a lot on my MLB.com package, I knew the lefties had no shot, and it comes as no surprise that all the semi-finalists were righties...

    Vlad is a batting practice force. he could win this thing every year.
