Morneau needs our help!

Justin Morneau is having a better season than his MVP season of 2006. In my opinion, Morneau is better than Kevin Youkilis and just about as good as Tex.

However, after the latest update, Morneau stills sits behind Youkilis (1st) and Texeira (2nd). Mark Teixeira should probably be in first place because he is an excellent player who is once again having an excellent season. However, the fact remains that Morneau trails both of these players when he does deserve to be in the all-star game.

Morneau trails Mark Teixeira for second place by 314,726 votes. Morneau trails Kevin Youkilis, in an undeserved first place, by 354,773 votes.

We can help Morneau get into second place though! Vote many times, using mulitple email addresses...even make up emails in order to help our Canadian born 1B.

I can see Justin making the squad as a bench player, but it'd take a miracle for him to get voted in at this point.

He’s having a good season, but Youk is having the better year. The numbers still support it.

No they don't.

Youkilis sucks. Morneau had my vote 25 times. =)

"He didn’t call me or anything. It was an accident, but a lot of people would have called to see how someone is doing after they got hit in the head. Especially if they had to go on the DL." — Morneau on pitcher Ron Villone after an April 2005 beaning.

All Star Voting

You watch the results in the next few days and don’t be surprised if a guy like Ellsbury gets in and other Red Sox over more deserving guys like Hunter. This is why the All Star Game is just which fans vote the most for there favorites and stuffing the ballot boxes. I mean come on Josh Hamilton on the All Star Team?? Youkilis over Morneau or Texeira?? Pedroia over Kinsler?? Manny over any outfielder in the National League? I am surprised that Mauer even makes it in with this insanity when he is clearly the choice. Give the voting back to the players and coaches for a year or two then we will see a true All Star Game..

I'd actually like to see that

as long as managers treated it like a real game and didn’t feel forced to use every single player. Sure some fans would miss seeing their teams player in the game but I would like to see the best game possible.

If you are going to put home field in the WS on the line then this game should be more than an exhibition.

Right now that is all it is.
