Ok, I'll admit it! I am looking forward to this All-star game because D Lee and ARam are starting. The AL line up is stacked but I have my fingers crossed for the NL. Also, I'd be very happy if Burehle gave up some runs!
Yes, I thought of that scenario but he has to be careful because if the game goes to extra innings (and he hasn't been conservative with the pinch hitting throughout the game) the NL may have to have it's pitchers bat.
Said he would probably only get 3 at bats in the All-Star game. I wonder how LaRussa is going to handle that considering Pujols is the only other regular first baseman?
