Stand-Up Double Blog

Is Josh Donaldson the biggest All-Star snub? MVP candidate, yet missed out on the All-Star game.

@jponto11 I would tend to agree. Can't argue with Machado making it over Longoria, though. 2nd in the AL in hits, 1st in doubles, 1st in WAR

All-Star rosters were released today. Initial reactions?

@HotdogH20 @DurhamBulls @MiLB LOVE IT! I just purchased the movie "Bull Durham" the other day. Excited to watch it. I've heard great things!

What do you guys think? Should Yasiel Puig be an all-star? P.S. there will be a column coming out on this very topic tomorrow!

Find out what Joey Almars thinks about Chris Davis and the home run record with today's column: thestandupdouble.blogspot.com/2013/07/hr-rec…

@HotdogH20 Good deal. In the next week or so I'll send you a DM with more details. Thanks, man!

@HotdogH20 Perfect! I was thinking of doing a roundtable with 'midseason awards' that we would do during the all-star break. You in?

Would any of our readers like to be a 'guest blogger' in our next Stand-Up Double roundtable post? Tweet if interested!

@HotdogH20 @MattHarvey33 Oh yeah! Harvey has been spectacular this season. Starting the all star game at home would be really fun for fans!

Today the Stand-Up Double released its AL all-star ballots. Do you like Matthew or Joey's ballot more? Discuss here: thestandupdouble.blogspot.com/2013/06/al-all…

@splmygutz That sounds awesome! I wish I would have been at that game! It's going to be interesting what happens when Crawford returns.

@splmygutz Great to hear!! How is Puig-Mania over there? It must be crazy!!!

@mcBigtime24 #Phillips is hitting for a better average, OBP, and has 13 more RBI than #CAno. He deserves much more love than he's getting.

Which top-tier second baseman is no one talking about? Find out here... thestandupdouble.blogspot.com/2013/06/recogn…

@HotdogH20 great to hear. I'd love to go to Omaha for the CWS at some point. Go heels!

MUST SEE: gif of the day goes to Joe Mauer with this ridiculous no look backhand off the backstop. sports.cbsimg.net/images/visual/…

Hashtag of the day goes to @splmygutz .... #Ijustpuigedmypants .... let's get it trending!!

@splmygutz That's awesome! I've been on a tour of Dodger Stadium but haven't seen a game. Great park with great history! How was the game?
