Default Re: Jason Varitek is leading all catchers in all-star voting...

Do you recall what Tino's numbers were at this point last year? How about Derek's numbers?

Maybe not the best... but certainly not .240 and they were good numbers in their own right (I am not saying they deserved votes or whatever, but the numbers were not abysmal). Yankee fans wouldn't vote for a guy hitting .240 unless they were trying to vote him off the island.

its the All Star game, FANS vote for who they want to see etc. It means nothing!

Now Jeter winning gold gloves is a real travesty.

I didn't say anthing about last year and if you think yankee fans don't vote for their guys just because they are their guys then you don't know what you're talking about.

Jeter winning a gold glove is absurd. Palmeiro winning one when he DH'ed the whole year was a travesty.

Bucky Dent was nearly voted to the all star game one year when he was hitting .200...must have been all those non-Yankee fans that just liked Bucky Dent
