July 14, 200817 yr Ok here are some interesting stats on who is favorites in terms of numbers on paper: Uggla 13 AB's per HR Longoria 19.4 AB's per HR Utley 24.8 AB's per HR Berkman 26 AB's per HR Sizemore 27.5 AB's per HR Braun 28.3 AB's per HR Hamilton 31.7 AB's per HR Morneau 44.4 AB's per HR Interesting? Interesting? Yes. But seriously, stats mean nothing in the Home Run Derby. Well of course, which is why I said on paper. Just goes to show you, a healthy Uggla this season would be good for like 30-33 HRs right now. Yep, and right now he's on pace for 40+, without the injury he may have been on pace for 50+

July 14, 200817 yr Gotta love the options on ESPN's HR Derby Winner Poll: Hamilton Utley Berkman Other Noooo sign of Uggla. I hope he wins it, just to show everyone who we are.
July 14, 200817 yr I hope a righty wins it... I would be happy with either Uggs or Brauny(itsallaboutthe U) winning it
July 14, 200817 yr who is pitching for ugly stay tuned... not someone from the fish... thats all i know
July 14, 200817 yr GO DAN!!!! I wonder if Hanley didn't participate in the derby knowing they'd just intentionally walk him :mis2
July 15, 200817 yr GO DAN!!!! I wonder if Hanley didn't participate in the derby knowing they'd just intentionally walk him :mis2 I think they just didn't want to have 2 guys from one team. If I had to pick one for the derby, it would definitely be Uggla...or Cody Ross, but that's another story.
July 15, 200817 yr hes going to pitch to himself, than go run to the box, and hit it out He was going to have Hanley pitch to him, but kept getting struck out in BP.

But seriously, they'd walk him if he was in it...
