    I can't believe that Larkin can get a spot on sentiment (when he's not even retiring!), but Biggio can't get in when he's having a great year and the game's in the city where he's played forever.

    I truly hope they replace Griffey with Beltran who deserves to be in that All-Star game.

    Pretty sure they were just referring to the ASG. I doubt he'd be the first, second, or even third one they'd ask to be in the derby.

    Pujols, Dunn, Drew, and even Lowell are more likely candidates for the derby.
