mmmmmbeeer Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/mlb/news/mlb...r2004&fext=.jsp You gotta be f***ing kidding me...Nomar??? Giles and Grudzielanik??? Giambi???? NL is much worse than the AL, but both are miserable. They need to take voting out of the hands of the fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Wow that is bad. I think if I were a Red Sox, I would be in the top 3 at my position :headshake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 It's all part of ESPNs East Coast bias This is a great indicator of how popular each team is. IIRC, there are Cubbies at every position in the top 5. If you were trying to appeal to a national audiance, wouldn't you be certain to feature these guys and their teams?

DBAHO Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 My idea: Limit the voting to season ticket holders of each team, but only 15,000 votes from each team can be counted. At least, you get an even playing field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Fan voting has got to go, especially now that the all star game means something. I'm sick of big name players starting year after year regardless of the season they are having. It possibly prevents guys that are having that one good all-star caliber year from getting in, and that's a shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danman31 Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 he's injured though Is it so hard to believe he got a bunch of votes before that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSF Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 If that doesn't show why fan voting should be done away with, I don't know what will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
