July 8, 200323 yr CASTILLO IS IN 3RD KEEP VOTING Frank Thomas, hoping for a chance to play on his home field at next week's All-Star Game in Chicago, was quickly gaining ground on American League leader Jason Varitek as races remained tight and voting remained strong in the etopps All-Star Final Vote to determine the 32nd and final roster spots. With only 30 hours left in the torrid voting pace at MLB.com and ESPN.com, more than five million ballots already had been submitted. That's about two million more than were registered during last year's inaugural roster-completion program. Varitek, hoping to be a backup July 15 for rival catcher Jorge Posada of the Yanks, is hoping to hold on as the Big Hurt looks for that sentimental vote. Following them in order on your AL list are A's outfielder Eric Byrnes, Yankees first baseman Jason Giambi and Angels catcher Bengie Molina. The National League lead is practically a dead heat. Geoff Jenkins -- who missed that chance to play on his Milwaukee home field for last year's Midsummer Classic -- has overtaken last night's leader, Giants catcher Benito Santiago. Trailing them in order are Marlins second baseman Luis Castillo, Expos shortstop Orlando Cabrera and Pirates outfielder Kenny Lofton. Thomas is hoping to make his first All-Star roster since 1997, and he's campaigning on and off the field. Since June 2, the White Sox designated hitter/first baseman is hitting .347 (33-for-95) with 10 homers and 25 RBIs. This is the Big Hurt many people remember from those days when he was a Midsummer Classic fixture. "I think I deserve to be there," Thomas said. "I think everybody canceled me out and said my career was basically over. But I'm still doing my thing, getting all the walks. I definitely voted for myself because of the adversity I had to go through to get back to this level." In the NL race, one question is whether Santiago's current inactivity will hurt him as you make your final decision. The veteran catcher, who played his first All-Star Game since 1992, took a 12-game hitting streak into Monday's night's game in St. Louis but he has been out since dislocating his left pinky finger Friday. He is only expected to miss a week and expects to be available should you select him for his second consecutive All-Star Game. He would be catching for his former manager, Dusty Baker, who will oversee the NL squad. Mike Scioscia, the AL manager, also is hoping to have a catcher he managed during that last World Series in Molina. Baker and Scioscia provided the choices for you in their respective leagues, and it's also interesting to note that Baker has replaced his current center fielder (Corey Patterson, out for the season) with his previous one in San Francisco (Lofton). The races are close, and one thing we have learned from recent All-Star online voting is that things can change very, very fast. Just ask Al Pujols. Among NL outfielders, he was on the outside looking in entering the last week of online voting for All-Starters. He finished as the NL's top overall vote-getter. Boston's Johnny Damon and Atlanta's Andruw Jones were the winners in last year's well-received first opportunity to vote online for the final roster spots. That was an extension of fan empowerment last year, and this year there will be even more. Besides voting for the starters and the 32nd men, you will be able to submit your pick in the All-Star Game MVP online vote, presented by Pepsi. Fans will have a 20-percent say in which player is selected that night for the Ted Williams Award. The etopps All-Star Final Vote continues through 6 p.m. ET Wednesday, and the two winners as well as voting totals will be announced here shortly thereafter. c/o mlb.com
