All star game bullpens are just insane
Like a manager's wet dream
"I can't decide if I should use Kenley Jansen in the 7th, or save him and bring in Scherzer"
I'm voting Smoak as much to get Hosmer off of there as anything else
FFS
Hosmer 0.7 WAR this year, negative 0.2 WAR last year
What the f*** did he do to get these votes??
For what it's worth, Smoak has a chance
He's been as good or better by fWAR as any 1B in the AL except for Logan Morrison, and Morrion has no chance due to a .250 batting average and an uncaring fanbase
4 days left to vote
No Jays game today
Worth a thread to discuss the finalists
Make fun of the process and game if you must

Good point. Giants are probably legit bad and need to re rool significantly.
Cubs are underorming but will be fine even if they just hang on for now. They'll turn it around this year or next.
Obviously there was something (hopefully minor) wrong with Osuna
Team doesn't want to let the Royals know he's not available
It's as simple as that isn't it?
