Most Overrated players in MLB

Sports Illustrated magazine polled 228 MLB players to vote for the most overrated position players in baseball. The results....

Alex Rodriguez (16.8%)

Alex Rodriguez - 3B Yankees 16.8%

Derek Jeter - Yankees 9.2% (how is he not number 1???)

Jason Werth RF Nationals 6.0%

Nick Swisher RF Yankees 5.4%

Albert Pujols 1B/DH Angels 4.7%

Ichiro Suzuki RF Mariners 3.4%

Hanley Ramirez 3B Marlins 2.5%

Jason Heyward RF Braves 2.2%

David Wright 3B Mets 2.1%

Coco Crisp CF A's 1.8%

Yanks take 3 of top 4 positions. Seems if you have an overrated player, stick him in RF or 3B.....

What say you?

My friend, Mr Night Owl, is in trouble. Please help.

For those of you who read Night Owl's blog, and I think you all do... you know by now that he is in crisis. He is facing reality that he must take down the picture off of his blog of his beloved Alyssa Milano. Now me, I'm not that into her. But I ain't into the Dodgers either.
However none of that matters as Owl is my friend, and he needs help.
 This is where we come in. I'll have a poll up on the sidebar to help Owl choose his new Dodger Girl. And you, the voters, will help decide.
Here are the potential candidates, in alphabetical order, so no favouritism.

Audrina Partridge, wearing number 59. Who wears 59 for the Dodgers? No idea. Ask the Owl.
 I think Joe has cast his vote.
 Kim Kardashian wearing number 25. Please god, no one choose her.... maybe for the Mets...
 a benefit for Kim is you not only get her, but her whole family as well. Take that as a plus, or a minus.
 Lauren Conrad wearing number 7. Very cute.  Leader of the pack so far....
 Shawn Johnson wearing number 10. Now this one I know. Night Owl's favourite player wore number 10.
and it's Shawn Johnson. We all know what she can do. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge...
 Victoria Beckham in a '70's warm up jacket. Very retro. And she's married to an athlete far more skilled than any baseball player. Owl may not want to hear that. So she may not do to well in the vote. But it is up to you!
 Whitney Port wearing the old 00. Nice.
 If it matters, her first pitch was actually a darn good throw. All of the others, not so much. So she gets the athletes vote.
There you have your finalists for Night Owl's new Dodger Girl. Google them if you must for further, uh.... research material. It's all in the name of science. And helping a friend.

Right?

Now vote!

A poll and a birthday...

Okay kids, time to vote. You all know the drill. The poll is on the right hand side. Choose whick box break you want to see first in agonizing detail. Okay, maybe not. Probably just a quick half assed review with lots of pictures. Go. Vote. Now.

And a big Happy Birthday to my friend Kelli. You may now legally vote, and purchase an adult beverage if you choose.
Now in my country, you've been legal for three years already.


I'm just sayin'

1 hour left..

there's one hour left in the poll to the right on which pack to break. And it's all tied up. Someone break the tie while I get ready to watch the Braves game.

and while you're at it, leave a comment here on the over/under of how many times we see a shot of John Smoltz in the Red Sox dugout.

Pack busts... You choose

Shane from Shoebox Legends sent over some cards the other day, and like me, he likes to include a little extra in each package.
He sent over a few random packs to keep me entertained until my damn OPC gets here.

Take a look at the poll on the right... choose which pack I bust first.

My first poll...

Relax Marie, it's not the kind you can dance around... Over on the right, I ask a simple question.

Which baseball set should I collect next?
