Home Run Derby Open Thread

Who is your choice in tonight's Home Run Derby? Hometown hero Albert Pujols will, of course, be the player everyone is rooting for. I'm taking a dark horse -- Nelson Cruz of the Rangers. I suppose I am doing that just to be difficult.

Anyway, enjoy the Derby. Use this as an Open Thread for discussion during the game if you like.

 

Derby roster:

Joe Mauer

Brandon Inge

Nelson Cruz

Carlos Pena

Albert Pujols

Prince Fielder

Adrian Gonzalez

Ryan Howard

Sidebet: Chris Berman will annoy the crap out of me within 6 minutes.

6 minutes?

Damn, your tolerance is way higher than mine

At least he didn't break out the "Winnie the" Pujols thing

And can they drag this thing out any more? Just start the damn thing already.

Would it be wrong

to think it would be funny if Albert fouled one back and it hit that a-hole standing behind him?

or at least if it was wrong

it would have been more entertaining than wasting 5 minutes watching that stink.

Phillips, Berman and Morgan

why can’t Sterling and Waldmyn do this?

too bad the HRD this year isnt at the new yankee stadium…maybe inge woulda got 1

if this derby was at Yankee stadium

Inge would have 30 HR and still be in last place.

I wondered if the pressure

would weigh on Pujols. Guess it is…

Pujols:

Shut the hell up, Hood
