2010 Allstar Selections

[Canada8999]

I wonder if next year, the league should vote for it's all star teams?  Same format as Colby would like, with at least one player from each team, total number of votes gets on the roster?  Just a thought, not digging Colby's solo effort either, it was well done.

This would be pretty cool if we had enough participation.

This would be pretty cool if we had enough participation.

How about we hold voting now?  The all-star game is in two and a half weeks, so we should be able to accrue votes to decide the fringe players like Dunn, Thornton, and company.  Also, it may be best to consider the top performers of 2009 in this vote.

I'll have some polls up shortly.

I feel as if a player should be eligible for any position he can play on Fantrax. I know had Headley and Dunn in the OF for awhile.

Great polls... I just voted in all of them.  It's interesting to see how the votes are distributed between 2nd-tier all-stars and big names that haven't performed up to expectations this year.

[Mr.TradeKing]

Well said Mike, I was looking at the same thing.

All-star break is here, all recent trades have been processed, so we have some all-stars who have recently moved.  Like MLB, the all-star rosters are to be 33 players each (8 more than a regular roster).   

It is clearly evident that there is a lot of talent in the National League.  However, this is fantasy and many of these guys are in the AL in real life, so we will see if the NL can finally win the all-star game this year.

The Brewers had 6 AS, Yankees and Red Sox each had 5 AS, and the Phillies, Indians, and Athletics each had 4 AS.

 :CLE: has the most All Stars in the AL Central. Now we need to start playing a little better. GO TRIBE. Peavy injury is a major set back.
