who's everyone got in the Derby tonight? I think I'm leaning towards Pujols but I think I might go with Adrian Gonzalez.

GreatNortheast218 wrote:The pitcher goes out there with a coach, a catcher and some hitters (likely minor leaguers, or guys rehabbing about to come off the DL). No fielders. Coach calls balls and strikes. If a hitter puts the ball in play the coach decides what it is (e.g. "that's a base hit", "that's a fly out" etc). The batters don't actually run, unless maybe there's a guy working on getting off the DL. He may run the bases just to see of he can go all out. That way the pitcher gets to work on lots of game situations, ahead in the count, behind in the count, working out of the windup, out of the stretch, etc.

So, being a big Brewers fan I'm pretty excited that Prince won tonight... however, I'm sure some of you saw Ryan Braun come to home plate and do the
little boxing routine that him and Fielder worked out a few weeks ago. Do you fans from around the league think that's cocky or unsportsmanlike or does
nobody care? Personally I think it's pretty damn funny. Braun certainly seems to be one of the cockier players in the league... but hell, when you have
your own clothing line I guess you gotta fill the personality department as well.

I have no problem with a celebratory "handshake" or whatever you may call it, especially at a home run derby.

I dont have a problem with any players celebrating a touchdown, a homerun, a goal, or whatever.

I am all about celebrating home runs, touchdowns or even the wow dude you just belly flopped between 1st and 2nd base and fucked your knee up (see facebook for
photo).

Padres pitching is pretty fail at the All-Star game.
