    Who y'all got for the Derby? I like Giancarlo, but I threw some money down on Cano at +700

    You can kiss that money goodbye. He needs 25 to advance.

    Giancarlo is a monster.

    If they did the 30 extra seconds thing for every two home runs that went longer than 440 ft... Giancarlo would have had like 3 extra minutes.

    Really wished Springer wouldve said yes to the HR derby. He would crush the left field scoreboard. Also wouldve helped his campaign for next years all star and all around fame in the league with common fans.

    Think it's gotten better past couple of years but yeah it's kinda like the dunk contest...the players you wanna watch usually don't compete.

    What other event would you like to see?

    The uniforms are slowly growing on me, but not the best idea.

    Altuve made a nice play in the infield to rob CarGo of a hit, but is 0-3 with a popout, strikeout, and flyout

    Hopefully he gets another chance and does something with it.

    Hopefully Altuve is getting this all out of his system now. All that matters is his helping the team get back to the playoffs starting Friday.

    Might be the game right here. Harris in to face Diaz in a bases loaded, 2 out situation. Let's go Trill Will!
