no offense but Sizemore has no business as a starter. I don't think he should be a reserve either. .278, 12, 34 w/ 22 bags and 81 K's. Even as good on D as he is, no way. No Vladdy or Ichiro? I assume that was an oversight.

Ichiro is only going because of the Japanese vote. He and I-Rod and Beltran have no business being in SF this year.
Since I was doing my team without regard to the real voting, Ichiro wasn't considered. I suspect Big Papa was doing the same.

Ichiro is hitting .359, with more RBI's than Sizemore and the same amount of SB's. To not consider Ichiro is strange at best.

I agree that he is more deserving than Sizemore but Ichiro is clearly not one of the best 3 OF in the AL this year. However, my statement that he doesn't belong in SF went too far. I don't think he has a case as a starter.

Nope, that was just my homer pick, since it is my team, that's who I want. Now go fight some dogs.
