Congratulations Victorino

Congratulations to Shane Victorino on winning the Final Vote. Let's check out some stats.

Pablo Sandoval 3B .326 13 HR 48 RBI Not much Defense. No speed at all
Shane Victorino OF .308 6 HR 40 RBI 15 Stolen Bases. Not much power.
Matt Kemp OF .314 10 HR 45 RBI 19 Stolen Bases. Five Tool Player.

I'm a fan of the Panda. Not much of a fan of the Hawaiian dude. I'm not saying this because I'm a Dodger fan but I truly believe that Kemp deserves it more than these guys. I like Panda's game but Kemp has everything.

Of course, stats has nothing to do with this contest. It's all about which fans are going to vote more often. Philadelphia and San Francisco cared more about it.

Enough crying...

There is some good news. Matt Kemp still has a chance. How? Well the starters of the N.L Outfield are Ryan Braun, Carlos Beltran and Raul "Blogging from a Basement!" Ibanez. The Hebrew Hammer is healthy but Beltran and Ibanez are hurting. There is no news yet if they will be able to play. Beltran looks like he might be out and Ibanez might return this weekend. If they can't then someone will replace them. Hopefully it's Kemp. The Manager of this game is Philadelphia Phillies Charlie Manuel. So who knows what he will do.

Another note, why do I keep getting e-mails about Andre Ethier? Is it the same person sending me e-mails with different names? Ethier is not a All-Star this year. He might be in the future but at this moment he's not. I'm sorry. Please be realistic. He's batting .247 !!

Let's hope there is some good news this weekend.

Haha, I was actually surprised. I thought Sandoval was going to take it. Let's hope Matt still gets in. Hopefully Torre puts in a good word for him.

Hey, I got a question. Who do you think was more of an All-Star? Pierre or Ethier? I'm just wondering.

Cool blog man. Keep it up.

@ LoveEthier16 - ok I believe you lol

@ J1255R_km - I also thought Sandoval was going to win it. I don't think Torre will put a good word.... I mean Kemp is batting 8th all the time!!

That's a great question. I'd pick Ethier only because he has had so many walk-off hits this season. But Pierre has done a great job.

Thanks.
