got the source? or if you're willing to make one half cardinal and half gold for me that'd be safe too.

Well, I made the picture... Hence why it's so shitty, cause I am not good with photoshop. We need more people to join the Tigerbeat Bruce Avatar Club.

If you don't want it... I'm taking it!

Actually the online ballots have stats right next to them...

But first you have to ask yourself who is the ASG for, the recognition of the players or the enjoyment of the fans? If it's for the players you're definitely right; if it's for the fans then the argument comes up that shouldn't they see anyone they want? If they want to see Torii Hunter start in CF shouldn't they vote him in? If they want to see the worst statistically defensive SS in the game (
Derek Jeter
) shouldn't they? If they want to see Brad Lidge come out in a big Psyduck ccostume so he can give up a homer to Manny Ramirez that reaches escape velocity shouldn't they?

Personally I agree w/ you, but it's a matter of perspective.

EDIT: YTMND here I come!!!

whoa whoa what is ian kennedy doing pitching in japan
 
so i was reading on baseball prospectus that since they predict bruce to be over a 300 hitter for the rest of his career, because he got a hit in his first at-bat it's possible that he will never have had a major league average under 300

what a badass.
 
Reds
Hairston Jr ss
Freel cf
Bruce rf
Phillips 2b
Dunn lf
Encarnacion 3b
Votto 1b
Ross c
Arroyo p


What is wrong with this...
 
Dusty must have missed the scouting report...

Ken Griffey Jr. 5 4 2 0 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 .800 .667 1.200 1.867

Thanks dusty!
 
7 games in a row?

And what does your 2nd comment mean? Why haven't we gone further? If thats the question than pitching would be your answer.
 
i can't believe the sheer amount of Reds fans showing up in this thread. Of all the teams I thought that would have fans show up this year, Reds are extremely nondescript that I'm completely surprised. :lol

I'm just saying: The Phillies have a virtual all-star team. It won't take much to push them over the threshold to be an epic team.
 
not that i'm complaining, but the Twins have been completely screwed this series when it comes to calls.

They're giving everything to Yank pitchers, and the marginal calls are not going to the Twins.
 
:lol

Nice to see one of those.

Ok, after viewing the replay, Steve Smith is an absolute idiot. Why send Utley and then try to hold him up 3 steps past the base!?

The Twins don't get any sympathy from me.

Ron Gant was safe!

I'm not a reds fan. But Jay Bruce kicks ass.

Hell I don't even like baseball I don't know how I got here.
 
Getting a little worried. Reds are hammering Kendricks pitches, even if they result in outs. In other words, its a matter of time before they start hitting gaps.
