...Why the guy who has the best E.R.A. amongst closers AND is tied for the League Lead in Saves gets to warm the bench in the All-Star game.

Why does everyone always pucker up and kiss the Yankee's Ass (Can you tell I hate a Certain Team)

You're complaining because Ozzie rested your closer, and used the closer from the team a few games behind you (who, by the way, has a lot more mileage on his skinny right arm), in a meaningless exhibition game? :confused:

And yes, it's meaningless---home field hasn't meant squat in the last 3 Series.

Good Point.....I just get blinded by my hatred of a certain team at times :D
