    The 2006 Homerun Derby Thread

    As long as we don't call it the "high heat matchup of the week"... cause that would jinx it.

    Does anyone think this year's contest will top Abreu's 41 onslaught last year?

    Hey Harold, it's not hard to find a bunch of AL Central guys by chance considering Ozzie wasn't shy with picking his guys (or ignoring the stats.)

    I prefer variety in a sports talking head. It's always Super Bowl this, NFL Draft that, training camp is here and there.

    Chambliss struggling to clear the bases due to the crowd charging the field in '76, I love that clip.

    Remember when Berman covered the Stanley Cup? And golf? Oh jeese.



    I'm sticking with Glaus. But I expect Howard to light up the place.

    I think I blocked him covering hockey from my memory.

    Glaus isn't a bad pick. He has to have some of the most raw power in the derby, but I really haven't followed him much this year so I don't know how his swing is looking.

    That's just mean to send Wright out after Glaus, who was the biggest sent out up to that point.
