rangercal Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 I have a small army helping me with votes now . I have about 10 of my friends doing 25 votes a day the rest of the way. If everyone can take 10 minutes and do 25 a day , we can do this. Keep spreading the word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Got my 25 in today. I've voted about 35 times all together. Should get some more in tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phuck the Cubs Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 This is what I really hate about the All Star Game. Allowing the fans to vote may have some merit, but it's just way too easy to commit fraud. The best players don't get voted in... the ones with the most aggressive fans do. And MLB doesn't care. :headshake I don't think there's anything you can do. People will find ways to get around it. I remember last year near the end, some Cubs fan found a bug in the system, posted it on the Cubs MLB board and that huge surge allowed Lee to overtake Pujols.

BigSqwert Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 (edited) After the A's series I figured we would have about 4 All Stars (Dye, Iguchi, Buehrle, and Contreras). Now I think we'll be lucky to have 2, with Dye and Iguchi (possibly even voted in). Thome will be hurt by not even being on the ballot and not playing 1B this year (NL park so no DH). I don't see any of our pitchers making the team at this point. A slight case could be made that Jenks could make the team but how many closers will Ozzie take on the team especially with Papelbon being a lock?

loltrain Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 There is no way Thome won't be an all star, I'm certain he'll be selected as a reserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Ozzie will bring the right guys to the all star game, so I have no worries about the voting stuff this year. The Yanks and Red Sox guys will win anyways due to fan base numbers, so no point in trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 (edited) While you're at it, throw some love towards our man the Gooch. He's not that far behind, and he's got Japan behind him as well EDIT: Also, if serious for voting for Dye, it may be wise to vote for two other crappy outfielders. Since you have to vote for 3, don't want to raise the count of those ahead of him Edited June 5, 2006 by 3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was that the number of Sox that should be there aren't as high as they were a couple weeks ago.

SoxFan1 Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/press_r...t=.jsp&c_id=mlb Dye moves from 10 to 9 while Pods takes the 8th spot in OF. PK - 3rd Tad- 3rd Joe - 3rd AJ - 4th Juan - 5th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Wow, I think I broke the system. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, it started giving me the exact same confirmation code like 20 times in a row. Then like 10 votes later, it decided my name was Colin Tremblay and I was born in 1992 (I even got Colin Tremblay's email address and zip code filled in.)
