    The guys who win this always seem to be consistent guys, not the guys hitting it 550 feet. I say Howard hits the longest one, but Tejada or Cabrera wins it.

    I'm taking my local guy, Glaus. I have been really impressed with him since he came to town. I think he has the competetiveness - but also the composure - to pull this together.

    I think Howard is worth a shot here.

    I would go with Ortiz. His swing has inherent lift and he is locked in.

    Do you think this marathon the Red Sox and White Sox are doing today will effect David Ortiz and Jermaine Dye in the Derby tomorrow? They both have been to the plate a 100 times today.

    They have played what amounts to 2 games. It's also hot as hell out in the city today. I really do think this will take its toll.

    My guy pooped out after the first round, when he hit 16 of them.

    How did Wright hit 16 of them and then only 6 more
    with 20 outs left. That was pretty impressive to
    select Wright cause no one liked him
