hogan873 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 This would be the funniest thing in this terrible baseball year. And maybe getting Maldonado to the game would force MLB to change the way all stars are selected. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalChiSox Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 This would be a great way to mock the team. I support it 100%. 2024 All Star Martin Maldonado. Because character matters. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I dunno, not really a fan of embarrassing the guy on national tv in front of the world because he can’t hit and his manager thinks he should play. Funny in theory, mean spirited in action. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sox weren’t forced to sign him and Pedro certainly isn’t forced to play him. But hey, see it through. Vote him in and let’s all laugh at and embarrass a guy who shouldn’t be in the majors but the worst team in the league decided to employ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also argue that by not taking his fitness seriously, he embarrasses himself more than anyone else could.

Milkman delivers Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Is it mean-spirited? Yes. But there’s very little a frustrated and neglected fanbase can do on a national level to draw attention to such shitty ownership/management to embarrass them. I support this, but there’s no way I’m wasting my own time voting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quin Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I recognize all points made by Kyle and SS2k5. But also, Maldy would get a bonus! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
