The winner of the 2008 Homerun Derby will be.......
Berkman
Guerrero
Hamilton
Uggla
Utley
Right now, my money would be on Utley winning and Hamilton runner up.

Man if they have odds on Guerrero NOT WINNING - I would bet every penny on it. I don't know why he even does these any more. He's been horrible. I'd go dark horse on Berkman only because he's been in the contest before.

Wouldnt say he's terrible, he did win it last year. And he's batting close to .400 recently so I wouldn't count him out considering how weak the field is. I'd definately take a shot if he were 8-1 or close.

Yeah, will be interesting to see how Berkman plays it as a switch-hitter. He went all right-handed in Houston four years ago (Tejada won it then) not because of the left field bleachers but because he didn't want to mess up his left-handed swing. He's even hinted at doing that again.

I hope Vlad fukks his swing so bad that he has no homers or hits in the second half of the season.
