Question About All-Star Voting


The Bones

Recommended Posts

Can you only write-in one player per league?

 

I just went to the MLB website to vote and I was gonna write-in Ramirez for 2B and Quentin for OF but I only see 1 write-in box at the bottom. Shouldn't there be a way to vote more than 1 person who is not on the ballot? The All-Star Voting system is already as screwed up as it can be and if this game is going to decide who hosts the World Series it needs a serious overhaul...starting with Red Sox/Yankees fans not deciding the lineups.

Quentin and Crede should start, and Gavin should also make the team.

Quentin is the only Sox worthy starter, A-Rod's getting hot again and Gavin won't be making it ahead of Lee, Marcum, Halladay, Santana, Kazmir, etc.

I hope you mean, only one worthy of starting. I mean, Q, Crede, AJ, Danks, Linebrink, and Bobby are all worthy of making the team. They won't because of stupid rules, but they are all doing well enough to make it.

The Sox have 3 starting pitchers in the top 8 in ERA in the AL. Of course, none are Buehrle or Vazquez, so Francona doesn't know who they are and they are meaningless at this point.

 

Regardless, it is funny you mentioned #3 of those 3 starters...Contreras is actually a somewhat recognizable name and John Danks has the 4th best ERA in the AL and 11th best in the majors. It's too bad ERA doesn't have more meaning in these choices...

Oh...I totally understand that no Sox are going to be starting...unless it's a pitcher. But I just wanted to do my part and keep Quentin atop the write-in votes list.

 

I really believe a strong write in presence will force him into the final vote.
