Carlos Quentin not on All Star Ballot!?!?!?

I know this isnt long enough, but it really upsets me that when i went to vote on the All Star ballot, Quentin was nowhere to be found and it will extremely upset me and piss me off if he is snuffed, so I will say either boycott it or put him in as a write in. He's leading the AL in HR's( well actually tied) but still the same, and he's been are most clutch hitter, I mean to go from not making the Diamondbacks to leading the Sox in HR's and hitting, I'd say that deserves something.

Carlos deserves better!

He does deserve better

But it’s not so much a snub so much as it’s a function of the fact that he originally was going to start the year in the minors.

that's why

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

MLB has actually made it fairly easy

to “repeat vote,” even for write-ins.

Once you make your selections, you can continure to “vote again” for the same guys…you just have to enter a new code each time.

A couple Q! links

A year ago, he was trying to establish himself while playing hurt; now, suddenly he is the toast of Chicago. Quentin, though, is not the type to get caught up in newfound celebrity. He is serious-minded about the game, committed to his routines, often described as intense. When the White Sox distributed a questionnaire asking players to name the person they would like to meet, Quentin wrote down “Newton,” meaning Isaac, not Wayne.
“I’ve been on both ends of the spectrum,” Quentin said. “I was almost forgotten about, and now I’m doing well and people want to talk to me. That’s the nature of the game, the nature of off-field stuff. It comes and goes. I stay impartial to it.”
