Thoughts on the Derby?
 Posted

The homerun derby takes place tonight @ Busch Stadium and personally I think more people care about this then they do the actual All-Star game.
I can remember the days I would sit in front of the TV and bet my buddies that Ken Griffey would hit out more dingers then Frank Thomas and then Mike Piazza would out blast them all.
Now, all three players are somehow involved in the league but it would be a miracle if they could get the ball out of the infield.
Personally it would be nice to see Albert take this one, but with the game at Busch and the ease of lefties hitting it out of the park I'd have to give it to Prince Fielder. But, Ryan Howard may have some extra motiviation because of his hometown tie in...
There is a highschool kid from Las Vegas who during a Power Showcase hit the ball 502 feet. IN HIGH SCHOOL! I don't care if the kid is using an aluminum bat...it's 502 feet
