Heads22 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I'm blatantly stealing Kalapse's sig, but CQ deserves to be on the All-Star team after a month of play, yet, he's not on the All-Star ballot. Write him in. Vote early and vote often. It's your duty as a Chicagoan and a Chicago fan. As Sox fans, we've exerted our will on the MLB voting systems in the past. Let's keep it going.

ChiSox_Sonix Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Baseball seriously needs to rethink how they do this when they have a guy who has been DL/AAA all year on the ballot over a guy who has started pretty much every game. Oh, and the fact that this started in April... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrockinMT Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 1, 2008 -> 08:22 PM) Of course I voted for him. Heck I vote for all White Sox players up to 25 times and that includes Uribe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan1 Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 .293 BA, 10 HR, 34 RBI, .401 OBP, .586 SLG, sexiest player in the league. Gotta give it up. Well done (so far) KW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 QUOTE (Tony82087 @ May 14, 2008 -> 10:44 PM) Not sure we even need to do anything. Carlos is going to get to the All Star game by himself. It's a real shame he's not on the ballot though, as of right now he deserves to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vance Law Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 It doesn't make the least bit of sense. 1) Why the hell do they put the All-Star ballots out so early? 2) Why in the f***ing universe do they take the teams' projected line-ups during spring training. Thanks to the computer!, which is now commonly used both at home and in the office, it would be very easy to get the teams' all-star candidates 14 minutes before the ballot goes out, rather than 2 months. Complete morons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 IIRC the teams submit the names and position. Why so early? Paper ballots at the ballpark would be my guess. Printing up a few million of anything has to take some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MurcieOne Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Carlos Quentin = Jose Canseco sans steroids.... well they kinda look similar. Lets hope that Carlos pulls down tail like Jose did (google Jessica Canseco, probably NSFW). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't take you long. 25 really does not take long either since you only have to complete the ballot once and then click a few times to have it register each additional time. BTW, what do you say we take this further? Why don't we draft a note for all season ticket holders to forward to their ticket reps basically stating that we are part of Soxtalk and trying to build a strong showing for Quentin. Since Owens is not on the ballot, it would be nice if the Sox personnel handing out the ballots at the park say something like, "don't forget to write in Carlos Quention." Further, maybe the Sox could use the jumbotron to lobby fans to vote for their favorite Sox players and again, "don't forget to write in Carlos Quentin." Hell, the "Punch AJ" campaign was so successful with T-shirts and all, you would think a "Write Carlos" T-shirt could work as well since he has become such a heartthrob even to heterosexual soxtalk males. It would be great if they had a table in the concourse area manned by someone with a premade stamp customized to fit CQ's name in the allotted space. I do not know if MLB would allow voting to be influenced to that level, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
