He would already be there had Phillips not called the Cardinals a bunch of bitches.

Darvish and Freese win the vote off for the last spot. NL now has four third basemen. Fucking Larussa.

Michael Bourn taking pictures with the other Braves all-stars.....seems like he's been added for someone....hope, but hope it's not Stanton.

Don't remember who but someone tweaked a hamstring and sat out the last couple games. Pretty sure it was an outfielder, maybe Melky.

Hate to see Melky miss.

He wants to do the derby but only if Reds are pitching.

Did I just see that Harper is an all star?? If so, that's terrible. He's not an all star.

Possibly the most underrated player in baseball.

No....the next 12 years probably but I like that he'll be there. Several every year that aren't deserving.

I'll say it first....Prince Fielder's kid looks exactly like Miguel Cabrera.

Not watching, literally, because of Chris Berman. He is the sole reason.

Well they just had Matt Cain on during Car Gon's AB and he was talking most of the time. Barely could hear Berman. But yeah, he sucks.

Trumbo was impressive. That one looked like it went down the slide.
I feel like a kid watching this every year.

I LOVE McCutchen(I would give ANYTHING to have him roaming CF in GABP), but they could have picked someone else...Jay Bruce anyone?
