July 6, 200520 yr I dont know if this was posted already, but Abreu was selected to represent Venezuela at the HR Derby, over Miggy. Im kind of dissapointed at that. I really want to see Miguel represent his country and the Marlins, and showcase his talents to the rest of the world. I think that MLB doesnt take advantage of the young talent the league has, they need to showcase the Willis', Cabreras, etc.
July 6, 200520 yr cabrera should be the one, he definetly has more raw power than abreu atleast he can hit 500 foot bombs in homerun showdown on MVP
July 6, 200520 yr Id rather Abreu hit in it. He is overmatched and will overswing, possibly injuring himself and guess what Cabrera would start the allstar game then.
July 6, 200520 yr Abreu is more deserving 841830[/snapback] Abreu: .315, 18 HR, 57 RBI Cabrera: .334, 16 HR, 59 RBI
July 6, 200520 yr Abreu deserves everything in this game and some more ... The poor guy has never been in an allstar game, he is always snubbed
July 6, 200520 yr Abreu deserves everything in this game and some more ... The poor guy has never been in an allstar game, he is always snubbed 841952[/snapback] He was in last year's game.
July 6, 200520 yr he was? ... well he still deserves to be an AS year in and out you're right, I was pretty happy that he finally made it
July 6, 200520 yr Obviously we would all like to see Cabrera over Abreu, but how many Phillies fans would agree with us?
July 6, 200520 yr He made it in last year on the last man ballot, though. 841965[/snapback] I knew he made it but I also knew that it was in some weird way ... like the last man ballot or through injury finally he gets the recognition and thats all I care about
July 6, 200520 yr Obviously we would all like to see Cabrera over Abreu, but how many Phillies fans would agree with us? 841996[/snapback] I wanna see Abreu :cool
July 6, 200520 yr Obviously we would all like to see Cabrera over Abreu, but how many Phillies fans would agree with us? 841996[/snapback] I wanna see Abreu :cool 842040[/snapback] Well trust me you are in the minority in that one
July 6, 200520 yr I wouldn't mind seeing Abreu, personally Better than Pudge representing Puerto Rico.....What the hell?
July 6, 200520 yr Having country representatives in the derby is just flat out absurd. In a better scenario, both could play.
July 6, 200520 yr I wouldn't mind seeing Abreu, personally Better than Pudge representing Puerto Rico.....What the hell? 842109[/snapback] I was thinking the exact thing. :confused
July 6, 200520 yr Abreu plays in the CIT. Cabrera plays at Dolphins Stadium. 842117[/snapback] Yeah, but if they dress up the guy throwing to him in a Marlin uniform he'll set Homer Derby records
July 6, 200520 yr Yeah, it's a one time thing though, meant to promote the 2006 Hispanic Beisbol Invitational, where the US and Japan will also be allowed to play

July 6, 200520 yr It seems like Florida teams are always snubbed. 842308[/snapback] Abreu was snubbed for almost his entire career... Not that anyone cares of course.
