I hereby make my attempt (likely futile) to dissuade all DTFT readers from voting for Alex Rodriguez for AL 3rd base in the All Star Game.

As of today:

Avg HR RBI
ARod (.311-17-49)
Mora (.309-12-39)

Mora leads Arod in hits (72 - 66), doubles (13 - 10)and stolen bases (6-5).

Mora has 4 errors in 169 chances.
Arod has 8 errors in 132 chances.

If these numbers aren't enough to convince you, I'll also remind you that Melvin Mora is not (and has never been) a Yankee!@#$%$%^&*

I will vote for Mora.
