I change my mind. It should be Orlando Cabrera starting, not Jeter.
Njktmac213 - June 24, 2007 05:33 PM (GMT)
This week, everyone needs to vote for Magglio Ordonez for AL OF, Matt Holliday for NL OF, Craig Biggio for NL 2B, and Miguel Cabrera for NL 3B.

Let's see ... Mags is still in 4th. Holliday is in 7th. Biggio is in 3rd and Cabrera is in 2nd.

Just saw your lineup in this thread Nick.
Not bad. I would only have a couple of adjustments, but I have no idea what they would be. :D But I would still have to make a coupla changes just to make it my own, eh? B)

For the first time in his 10-year major-league career, Magglio Ordonez might be an All-Star starter.
The Detroit Tigers outfielder, who has never been an elected starter, was in second place among outfielders in the final fan balloting update Tuesday. Ordonez, a five-time All-Star who has 1,445,899 votes, trails only Los Angeles Angels outfielder Vladimir Guerrero (2,043,824); Seattle's Ichiro Suzuki is in third place, while Boston's Manny Ramirez, elected to be a starter in each of the last eight years, dropped from second to fourth.
There is also a close contest at second base -- where Detroit's Placido Polanco, who is trying to earn his first All-Star invitation, leads the New York Yankees' Robinson Cano 1,269,717 votes to 965,712 -- and at catcher, which has a four-way race between the Tigers' Ivan Rodriguez (1,362,506), New York's Jorge Posada (1,111,926), Minnesota's Joe Mauer (951,664) and Boston's Jason Varitek (939,626).
Rodriguez, a 13-time All-Star, could set an all-time record among catchers with his 12th All-Star election.
The AL and NL rosters will be unveiled on Sunday.
If voting ended today, the All-Star teams would look like this:
American League Catcher: Ivan Rodriguez, Tigers First base: David Ortiz, Red Sox Second base: Placido Polanco, Tigers Shortstop: Derek Jeter, Yankees Third base: Alex Rodriguez, Yankees Outfield: Vladimir Guerrero, Angels Outfield: Magglio Ordonez, Tigers Outfield: Ichiro Suzuki, Mariners
National League Catcher: Russell Martin, Dodgers First base: Prince Fielder, Brewers Second base: Chase Utley, Phillies Shortstop: Jose Reyes, Mets Third base: David Wright, Mets Outfield: Carlos Beltran, Mets Outfield: Ken Griffey Jr., Reds Outfield: Alfonso Soriano, Cubs |

I think Griffey should be in the top 3 of voting.
Patriotfan45 - June 27, 2007 12:37 AM (GMT)
I think Matt Holliday needs to be in the all star game. He is sooo underrated

I think Victor Martinez deserved catcher. Morneau should have been the 1B. Polanco at 2B is right. A-Rod at 3B is right. Carlos Guillen or Orlando Cabrera should have been SS. OF is all right.
