Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Miscarriage of Justice

I saw in Danny Knobler's comments today that the Tigers have kept Curtis Granderson off of the All Star ballot this year. They instead elected to put Monroe, Ordonez, and Sheffield on the ballot. Since there is no DH this year with the game in an NL park, Sheff had to be an outfielder. Personally, I find this a complete miscarriage of justice, so I would like to see us all work towards a nice write-in campaign for Granderson. I feel Granderson ranks right there with the All Stars of the American League, particularly considering his start to this season. So remember vote early and often for Curtis Granderson as your write in candidate for All Star

Kinda strange to me...
I guess they think that the more popular name of Gary Sheffield will get them a better chance at having a Tiger in the AS game.  I am not a fan of this -- Granderson deserves to be on that ballot.

Let the Ballot Stuffing Begin...
Maybe the Tigers can start a P.R. campaign to get fans to vote for Curtis as a write-in.  That'd be nice to see.
