Thanks for all the replys. Like I said. I AM NOT EXPECTING HIM TO GET VOTED IN. I just can't believe he didn't even make the list and Jason Heyward is 6th That is a joke. He has a wapping 1 more HR than Prado and only 2 more RBIs. So that stat goes out the window.
I am just disappointed that he didn't even make the list. I understand not being at the top, but like these Reds fans said. He is the glue of the Braves. Just ask Chipper or McCann or any of the other stars. Yes they keep giving the title of "the next face of the Braves" to players like Francouer or Heyward, but year after year it is Prado that keeps putting up the numbers and filling in the gaps (in the lineup and on the field).
If Ichiro, and Bourn can make the list then he should be given some consideration even if he isn't voted in...he should still get more votes than Heyward.....Jason will be lucky to be around in 4 years let alone be an All-Star.
You could aways ask a Phillies fan how many HRs Prado can blast in their ball park. It seems like he hits 1 or 2 every series against them.
Oh well I can't wait to watch the "names" play for WS home field advantage. (and if you have seen that list that the AL has going....the NL should be very aware that "names" and not skill aren't going to beat those players).
We'll see how lucky we get. Perhaps Uggla will hit a home run and instead of 3 strikeouts he will only have 2.
i'm thinking prado's not on the list because of how awful he was all of last season. plus, he was kinda mediocre for the first month of this season before he started heating up.
