1981 All-Star Game Voting

[Sully]

Yeah, what Franklin is doing is simply amazing. He blew through the minors at the age of 18, and is dominating the BLB at 19.

Tim Nathan has a higher VORP than either of the other 9-game winners, yet nobody's voting for him. And Franklin leads H/9 by a full hit and OAVG by .030, yet nobody's voting for him either. Interesting....

I would argue that both my SPs are having better seasons and neither of them are getting votes either.

Gonzalez: 5 W, 2.18 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, 75K, 19 BB, 3 CG
#3 in ERA, #1 in CG, #1 IP, #5 in BB/9, #2 in VORP

Chavarraga: 6 W, 2.86 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, 112K, 23 BB, 1 CG
#1 in K's, #1 in K/9, Top five in OBP, SLG, OPS,

Wow, the only man to ever win the best reliever award in the IL is not even on the all-star ballot. Over the hill at 23!

I can't believe how thin we are at 3B. All the votes in both leagues going to one guy (if you don't count Skerik's vote)

[HungryB]

Voted.

Maybe it's because nobody likes you.

Looks like my Bulls will be well represented. Zamarida, Dean, Lang, O'Brien, and Harcourt all figure to be there in some capacity. Dean belongs on the team, but there's no way he should start ahead of Corrigan. That dude's been lights out all year. Dean might have as many wins, but for some reason my entire offense goes down the crapper every time he pitches.

Hmm...great point. Perhaps he belongs on Baltimore's roster. Skerik? Want to work out a deal for him? :D

[Andrew]

Just to clarify the bonuses, the player who is voted to start gets the extra bonus money even if they are injured. It looks like Zamarida from Denver will be missing the all-star game, which made me think of this.

It's unfortunate that Grandon was hurt for so long, or he would have most likely been in the discussion for 3B.


I completed my voting, but got this when I was done:

"Couldnt open complete.html 4"

So I'm not sure if it took or not.

Voted :)

1 left and we can tally the vote. I wish I had waited until now to vote. Things definitely changed since I first posted it.

That's why I waited until after this sim to vote.

Screw waiting. I'd be the college football coach who turned in my Top-25 ballot before the games start on Saturday.
