I paid slightly closer attention to my selections this time around, though only a few spots changed. I feel pretty good about my tapping Joe Mauer last time even though he had only returned from injury two days prior—he's only hit eleven HRs and hit .444 in the three weeks since...Jeter's out and Damon's in—though I'm not so sure about him, since he won't be facing the Sox (I swear, he's hit like 9 of his 10 HRs against Boston).
Let me go out on a limb and predict an NL victory this time out. Looking over the rosters, it just seems like the AL is fat with youngsters having hot starts, while the NL squad is filled with seasoned badasses. We'll see who's pitching and on the benches, but the starting lineups (based on my ballot) are a mismatch.
