After the idiotic All-Star Game rosters were announced yesterday, there was only one question left to ask. Who are the candidates for the Final Vote?
Nick Swisher finagled his way into the vote, while Kevin Youkilis was snubbed out of the preliminary roster making him the heavy favorite in the Final Vote.
But Swish does have one thing going for him: A way better video campaign.
Swish’s vid, Youk’s vid
In all seriousness, does Swish have a prayer? The roster already has three backup outfielders and only one backup first baseman (two if you count DH David Ortiz). Here are the numbers:
| Name | AB | HR | RBI | BA | OBP | SLG |
| Nick Swisher | 287 | 13 | 47 | .293 | .373 | .505 |
| Kevin Youkilis | 274 | 17 | 54 | .299 | .416 | .584 |
Like I said, it doesn’t look good for our guy, Swish. But hey, it’s up to us to vote! And for those who have no lives, you can keep voting until your heart stops.
