Go Mets! 3 players representing. Though I'd prefer to see Floyd and Wright go rather than Piazza and Beltran since they don't really deserve it this year.

Today is the last day to vote for the final roster spot for both teams. The voting ends at 8PM EST (GMT-5).

Pat Burrell not being selected is a joke.

[L3thal Veteran]

There are quite a few jokes in the selections, like usual. What can we do about it, BOOG?

[....]

Nothing, of course. I hate that the All Star games (in virtually any sport) are popularity contests. What..just up until a few weeks ago, Nomar was the top vote getter for NL SS. Yay.

Everyone make sure to throw in your final votes for Scottie P!

[Steffan]

IlliniPi, you got your wish, Scott Podsednik and Roy Oswalt are heading to Detroit. Jeter and Hoffman finished 2nd.

I love Scotty P. We traded him to the Sox and miss him dearly yet we love Lee.
