The Eck very politely but still pretty clearly trashed poor Julio’s ridiculous range, and his ‘going-through-the motions’ dives last night. Overhead from Brad Penny relative to those trade rumors: “Hey, do they have a major league shortstop in Atlanta?”
I don’t know why they have to start the all-star voting so early, before we’re even halfway to the all-star game, or why they don’t just allow one vote instead of 25. I guess I could justify Youk over Teixeira, Pena, and Cabrera, because of Youk’s average and defense, but not Pedroia over Kinsler, who now has 15 home runs. Starting for the AL, I’d vote: Youk, Kinsler, Bartlett, Longoria, Mauer, Bay, Cruz, and Hunter. In the NL: Pujols, Utley, Ramirez, Zimmerman, BMolina, Ibanez, Braun, and Beltran. Pedroia may or may not get picked over Aaron Hill as a reserve. Maybe Sox on the team: Youk, Pedroia, Bay, and Papelbon.
