Post your 3 picks out of 8 and total number of homeruns wins?

1. Hee-seop Choi
2. Jason Bay
3. Bobby Abreu
4. Carlos Lee
5. Andruw Jones
6. Ivan Rodriguez
7. David Ortiz
8. Mark Teixeira


tie-breaker: how many home runs will your 3 guys hit total.

MLB.com has a Home Run Derby Challenge -- but it didn't work for me when I tried it earlier. Now it is in Firefox, but not IE. (It could've been cuz I rejected the cookies; who knows... but I'm in now!)


I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol

And you could win $21,000 -- enough for Plaw to buy me 100 dinners!

I'd have about as good a chance at winning that as I would at the lottery!

Good luck to you guys, though; I'm sure since y'all base your picks on more than who's cutest (hopefully), you'll have a good chance.

I'll be watching, tonight, though. Sure miss my regular ball games, but this should be fun to see.

In that case, I predict Pudge to win.

I was wondering what's going on with this "international" thing? Did it just work out that the guys chosen were all from different countries, or did they actually pick them specifically for that? I think it's crazy if they did it just so it'd work out that way...

nooooooooooooo look at pudge he only has 6 or 7 hr's this year lol

Hee-seop-choi??????


They did this I guess to "add ratings"

I mean it's only a home run derby, why would anyone want to see the 8 best home run hitters? :rolleyes:

Should've had Big Mo Ensberg in there... Oh wait, "American" was already taken, huh? :rolleyes:

These announcers are going to get on my nerves pretty quick.

Ooh, nice camera shot of A-Rod there...hope Sicilian Babe's watching, too.

Wow, Bobby Abreu just blew the hell outta the first round record.

 Ortiz
 Rodriguez       Ortiz           Ortiz
 Jones           Rodriguez

Maybe I was letting it get personal with Pudge...

Congratulations to Bobby Abreu! Whatta show he put on setting all those records. Too bad Bay didn't hit any dingers. I thought they would have chosen Larry Walker to represent Canada but regardless tonight belonged to Venezuela.

How about my boy Bobby Abreu?!! I hope that now he finally gets the national recognition that he deserves.
