Longoria and Hart are named to the All Star Game

[Mets82]

In the online balloting for the final 2 spots in the All Star Game, Evan Longoria and Corey Hart have won. It came down to Longoria and Jermaine Dye and Corey Hart and David Wright with Longoria and Hart prevailing.
Just wanted to pass that along. At least Giambi didn't make it.

Corey Hart?

I don't know if he's deserving. I voted for Burrell.

Corey Hart?

I don't know if he's deserving. I voted for Burrell.

Corey Hart isn't remotely deserving in a general sense and he's a much inferior player than Burrell. I could understand David Wright, who isn't having as good of a year as Burrell but is at least a star in the making (or arguably already there). Burrell should be chosen as the replacement for Soriano, but we'll see what Hurdle does.

Corey Hart is having a great year and is deserving. C'mon sideshow where the Brewer love?

In response to Sideshow Bob, Soriano is going to replaced by I believe Matt Holiday of the Rockies.

I think a starter should be replaced by the next person in the voting results by the fans.

In response to Sideshow Bob, Soriano is going to replaced by I believe Matt Holiday of the Rockies.

Only as a starter, Holiday is already on the All-Star roster. They now need to replace him on the roster.
