Stars help give baseball a pulse in inner cities Juan Pierre joins fellow African-American MLB players Orlando Hudson, Ken Griffey Jr., Garret Anderson, Prince Fielder, Brandon Phillips, and Gary Sheffield to promote baseball in inner-city neighborhoods. If all of the millions of kids that Pierre has worked with would vote just 5 times, Juan would have locked up the starting All-Star nod last decade. What a stud.
Manny is now trailing Mike freakin' Cameron in ASG balloting. I mean, Manny doesn't deserve to be there, but Mike Cameron? Brewers fans are delusional. Cameron is hitting .243. He was in a 3-for-38 slump a few weeks ago, yet he's somehow more worthy of the honor than Beast Mode?!!!
We all know the only reason Juan Pierre isn't running away with the voting is because he's not on the ballot, and its difficult to write "Juan Pierre" on 20,000 ballots, but let's be real here: Mike Cameron should not be anywhere near the All Star Game, and Brewers fans are making a bigger mockery of it than Manny is.
I'm guessing Corey Hart (.248) is in the top 10 also. Shame on you, Milwaukee.
The purpose of this blog is to get Juan Pierre elected as a STARTER to the 2009 All Star Game in St. Louis?
WHY?
Because he deserves it. Juan Pierre is a very good baseball player who is working hard to earn that ridiculous paycheck that Ned Colletti gave him. We at VoteForPierre don't fault Juan for signing that $$$$$$$$ contract. We do applaud him for give 100% every time he is on the field.
