Homerun Derby

Featured Replies

Does anyone know whose going to be in the Homerun Derby?

 

Are they going to announce it on the selection show?

usually we know the weekend before.

For the HR Derby, the contestants are usually the top 3-5 in HR at break in AL and NL. Sometimes the players opt not to do it regardless of their rank, like Bonds and Sosa last year I think. Would like to see Giambi, but if that's how they choose, by the ranking at break, then I can forget about Giambino this year.

i say in the NL

 

Pujols

Cabs

Griffey(maybe)

Sosa

Bonds(if he wants)

The fact that you don't have the major league leader in homeruns is beyond me.

I would like to see:

 

Sosa

Thome

Cabs

Blalock

Guerrero

Ramirez

 

 

- Bond tried a year or two ago and sucked ass.

- I think Griffey and Pujols feel that they are too good to compete on the Derby

If Griffey is selected to go on the Derby im sure he do it this his first all-star game in a while and im sure hes going to participate in everything

dude look at the pic in my sig

Dude, i dont want Cabs screwing up his swing just for this...I'd rather him not join it.

Cabrera is a rising star

 

I really would like to see him get in on the action

 

Cabrera IS the next Pujols, A-Rod, whatever you want to call him

I have a problem when people say that he is the next Pujols or ARod. Who has the rings? He is Cabrera, and he is what is next.

let the kid has fun.

 

who knows, if he puts a good show that may motivate him to keep it going on the second half.

wow, i totally missed that. that came out of no-where. sorry, ive been out of civilization scince early yesterday :confused

I'll take Pujols as of now since he will obviously be in there, although if Adam Dunn ends up taking Casey's spot on the NL Roster and gets himself into the Home Run Derby, I'll take Dunn.

 

That man just kills the ball...

I would like to see:

 

Sosa

Thome

Cabs

Blalock

Guerrero

Ramirez

Pujols and Griffey think they are too good for the contest? I wouldn't be surprised if they are the first two to say yes. Now Barry the Princess on the other hand.....

Last night during the Sox-Cubs game they showed the sluggers who had already agreed to participate.

 

I don't remember the full list, but Bonds, Griffey, Sosa and Manny were on it.

I heard Sosa, Palmeiro, Griffey, Thome, Giambi and Vlady as 6 of the 8.... Maybe Manny and Barry were the other too. Who knows
