    Enjoy that.

    Wait **** didn't I just type that? How many threads we need on a 26-61 manager?

    I bet he won't complain about the roster.

    OK, I'll chage the subject.

    Lincecum and Halladay named All-Star starters. Let the Royals' fans begin screaming.

    Manuel gets to scout him up close.

    The managers got 'em both wrong. Haren has been the best pitcher in the National League so far.

    Haren and Lincecum is pretty much a wash and Lincecum is on regular rest. Haren pitched Friday.
    Grienke probably deserves to start for AL but, as I've said before, I think Halladay is the best pitcher in baseball (not that he's having a better season than Griekne, just the best overall) so he's never a bad choice.

    This is the 2009 All-Star game. The best in 2009 deserve to start it. Halladay's numbers don't match up to Greinke's and he missed some time with an injury. Not that he hasn't been good enough to earn the start. He just hasn't been the best in the AL so far this season.

    I understand the regular rest argument, but IMHO if Haren is going to pitch at all, he should start.

    It's not the "2009 All-Best Game."

    Actually, the way it is voted and most of the team is selected, it kinda is.

    I have no problem with Lincecum or Haren and Grienke or Halladay.
    No bad choices there. Not that big a deal

    Neither is most of the stuff we all debate about on this board. :)
