I'm going to ahead and sticky this for right now. That will make it easier to find when the next 30 threads complaining about the All-Star voting process are created. :-D

Good idea. I'm going to post my thoughts some time in the next day or two. It would be fun if everyone could keep a running tally of how many votes a player gets. Something like:

OF McLouth (3)

Good list, I would replace Pedroia with Kinsler though and also replace Soto with McCann. Also, Morneau may deserve a spot over Youkilis, I think his numbers will be much better by the all-star game...and he's just simply a better player.
