MLB All Star Game 2008 - Yankee Stadium

Someone please explain to me how come this years All Star game is not loaded with Yankee players? How can it be that the American League Team

(WOW Carl Crawford just blasted a Grand Slam against the Cubs in the b7 and now BJ upton just hit a Stand Up Triple WHAT AN EXCITING TEAM!!! Now I am pissed I gave up my tickets for tonights game!!! I cant even type as Hinske just drove in Upton with a double! Three minutes ago the Rays were losing 3-1 now its 3-7)...

OK so

(Hinske steals third)

I do not understand how the club with the highest attendance in the American League averaging around 50k per game can not have voted in Giambi at first, Damon to Outfield

(Longoria Sac Fly Hinske Scores 3-8 can you say S-W-E-E-P )


And Posada to catch... Lets be honest here, Giambi has turned his season around and should be ahead of the crappy Youkalis.

(Jesus... Floyd now with a double.)


And Damon is just behind A-Rod as League Leader in Average and is hotter than liquid glass. And Posada is arguably the best catcher in baseball. At least out of the manly ones that don't wear a Hockey C on there chest.

So in a nutshell here is my All Star Picks (And Yes I voted 25 Times As Allowed)
1st - J. Giambi, NYY
2nd - A. Iwamura, TB
SS - J. Bartlett, TB (Jeter is already a lock so why waste a vote)
3rd - A Rod
Out Field - J. Hamilton - J. Damon - C. Crawford
Catcher - Posada

I picked no-one for the NL because honestly I have no clue who 50% of these guys are...

So bottom Line. Why are the Yank Fans at the Stadium not Voting?? I did and it would only be right that the GREATEST STADIUM IN ALL SPORTS. THE ONLY ONE WITH HISTORY THAT INCLUDES, MANTLE, GEHRIG, DiMAGGIO, RUTH, RIZZUTO, JACKSON, FORD, BERRA, STENGEL, AND EVEN MEL ALLEN should be closed by fielding Yank players.

And one can only hope that the normally classless Terry Francona would have Mariano Rivera be the AL starter for this game and have him pitch 1 inning. This would be the way this game should be played and the best Closer Ever should be the one to throw that first inning.

Well lets see if those Yanks fans will get it done by Jul 2nds deadline. They have 7 Home Games @50,000 Average thats 350,000 votes for the guys above minn. Get Out an Vote!!
