CardsJimEdmonds15 Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Jeter, Oswalt lead Final Vote We're halfway to the wire in the Ameriquest All-Star Final Vote and it's almost too close to call. The balloting continues until 8 p.m. ET Wednesday, so you still have plenty of time to select one final nominee from each league to go to Detroit for the 76th All-Star Game on July 12 and represent that league's 32nd and final roster spot. After one day of balloting, New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter leads the American League voting by a hair over Chicago White Sox outfielder Scott Podsednik. The AL's other nominees, in order of current position in the voting, are Minnesota Twins outfielder Torii Hunter, Yankees outfielder Hideki Matsui and outfielder Carl Crawford of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. In the National League, Houston Astros right-handed starter Roy Oswalt, no doubt helped by his strong performance in a 4-1 win over San Diego on Monday, leads and is followed closely by closer Trevor Hoffman of the San Diego Padres and sinkerballer Brandon Webb of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Closer Billy Wagner and starter Brett Myers, both of the Philadelphia Phillies, are fourth and fifth in the voting in the NL.

Mark Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Jeter: .308, 10 HR, 35 RBIs, 10 SB, 66 R, 13 x-base, .395 OBP, .446 SLG Crawford: .282, 8 HR, 45 RBIs, 24 SB, 48 R, 20 x-base, .316 OBP, .430 SLG Hunter: .272, 14 HR, 52 RBIs, 19 SB, 51 R, 22 x-base, .343 OBP, .498 SLG Man, I think I would take Hunter in all of this, seriously. Too bad he's not going to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
