Give me a break Obese. Werth is batting .268 with 21 HRS and over 50 RBIs. He is having a very good year and deserves the spot.

What a turnaround for Jonathan Sanchez! Holy cow! After being removed from the starting rotation following a 2-8 record and an ERA around 6, he throws a no hitter in his first start back. If I can recall correctly, this is the first no-no in the 09 season. I have but one question for him: Where the heck were you? grin

Oh, and SLR, I'm just bitterly embroiled with Philadelphia as a whole right now, after the "Bran Torino" campaign. Werth has put up great power numbers, but I can pick on his poor average, especially when Sandoval is snubbed.

Hell, I'd pick Kemp over Werth. I feel for you, tunick. Almost. That would have been my worst nightmare, though, had Kemp been selected to replace Beltran.

No, no, not about the All Star Game (Dodgers are sending Broxton, Billingsley & Hudson)............................that post was a reference to the Phillies winning the N.L. pennant last season over the Dodgers at Dodger Stadium, on my birthday. Doesn't get much worse than that. tongue

That was your birthday?? Ok, even I sympathize with you on that one. Tough luck, man.

ESPN2 was showing the 1999 home run derby this morning, and I couldn't help but be in awe as McGwire and co. just absolutely destroyed the balls. I had almost forgotten about that age. Before the dark times, before the Mitchell Report. tongue

Tim Lincecum, Roy Halladay to start in All-Star Game

grin At least one thing is going right for the Giants with regards to the midsummer classic. It's a shame that Matt Cain will be unavailable, but I'm happy to see Timmy start.

Hopefully Billingsley won't have pitch from behind when he comes in. tongue
