HOME RUN DERBY!!!

PrintI find Home Run Derby's extra more exciting than regular home runs or regular derbies. I think it's all the extra counting and the grunting that goes on. It's like... magical.
In other news, what the All-Star game REALLY needs is a pitching derby, AKA knock down the f_ckin' bottles like at the carnival. I would even set up a dirty looking carney in a striped vest and give away a giant Pink Panther stuffed animal, except mounted on a wooden base like it's a trophy.
YEAR OF THE PITCH, BITCH!!! PITCHERS RULE!!! HITTERS DROOL!!!
I don't know what I'm talking about. Here, vote in the poll and discuss who you think is going to hit more BP home runs.
Here be the contestants (formatting stolen from Purple Row):
American League
- Miguel Cabrera (Detroit Tigers) - .346/.423/.651, 22HR
- Vernon Wells (Toronto Blue Jays) - .265/.319/.524, 19HR
- David Ortiz (Boston Red Sox) - .263/.384/.562, 18HR
- Nick Swisher (New York Yankees) - .298/.377/.524, 15HR
National League
- Matt Holliday (St. Louis Cardinals) - .300/.373/.529, 16HR
- Hanley Ramirez (Florida Marlins) - .301/.381/.485, 13HR
- Chris Young (Arizona Diamondbacks) - .266/.330/.469, 15HR
- Corey Hart (Milwaukee Brewers) - .288/.349/.569, 21HR

These are the lamest contestants ever in a HRD.
All of the good hitters don’t actually want to compete. I’ll bet Chris Young strikes out.

I want to say
That a couple years ago that had a pretty lame lineup. But, my memories of silly exhibitions are fuzzier than others.

Gonzalez or Votto should be in the Derby.

Gonzalez was asked and declined

Two questions....
Why do they keep doing this lame-ass competition?
Is Berman doing the “play-by-play”?
Berman will do the play-by-play and the NFL pregame show and the NFL draft
Until he decides he doesn’t want to anymore.

They really should bring back and modernize the old Home Run Derby television shows. I’d love that so much.
Back then, the players actually kind of needed the money from those contests
Nowadays I assume they could do it for charity.

That's quite a disappointing exposition lineup.
They need to switch to a pitching derby, and fast, before anyone notices that big boppers are disappearing.

I’m sorry. I was busy all weekend. Golfing, visiting friends, etc… It actually felt weird being away from GLB for like 3 days. I feel very out of touch.

Quick question
If you get Mlb Extra Innings and your out of area (in LA) will you get the Padre games? Or does Cox ruin it for all of America?
The half season special is starting to I want to pick it up, I’m tired of following via gamecast.

Cox can't ruin it for all America
Because you can still get the opposing team’s broadcasts. Cox used to not have an agreement with MLB for those things so all you could watch were the opposing broadcasts, but now they are sprinkled in with all the rest. But, nevertheless, every game that is at least televised by one of the teams will be available via Extra Innings and MLB.tv as long as you are out of market and the game is not during the blackout times for Saturday Fox games (usually afternoon) and ESPN Sunday Night games.
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.

I’m going to get it tomorrow or Wed, can’t wait.

You can't always watch opposing teams feeds.
When we play Seattle, I can’t watch either feed. Same with San Fransisco. And I would assume we’re out of market for san fran, so I have no idea why it’s blacked out.
