I think Wake not getting in convinced me that MLB has to stop this shit with the All-Star game determining home field advantage in the WS. Let the best record determine it. Even if it’s some weak ass NL team playing in some weak ass division. It will just mean they really have no advantage. I’d have rather seen Wake play & who the fuck cares who wins. Let it be an exhibition game. That was total bullshit. I’m a Yankees fan too, but I was glad for Wake he made it. Not getting in was bullshit.

what a stupid post….we want Maddon to empty his bullpen to throw Wake a bone? If he did that and they go to extra innings – he gets killed for managing like an idiot. Instead he is getting killed by idiots for managing the game right. I prefer the latter.

Come on, everyone loves Wake, good guy and all that BS, but it’s a joke he made the team. His ERA is 4.3, he has a bunch of wins cuz he pitches for a great team. He’s lucky he was even there. He’s a 5th starter pitching like a 4th starter, that’s not an All Star

Hey, it’s never easy being a novelty act. Wake knows it and told everyone he could care less if he made it into the game. Just relax.

Die hard red sox fan here and i DESPISE joe maddon because i think he’s a fucking old prick, but I didn’t want to see Wake out there last night over those closers (Pap, Nathan, Rivera). If that game had gone into xtra innings however they might have needed 2 or 3 innings out of him. I just think with him having to face an all-star lineup if they got to him it could have been trouble for the AL, just too risky.

You guys are all fucking clueless. The game actually does mean something now so why would you throw and old hag like him out there in a close game. They won the game, shut the fuck up

There’s nothing worth killing in season right now you putz, but I’d rather blow away something instead of wasting my time at that game.

Maddon was trying to lose he doesn’t want the Sox to have homefield advantage during the WS…
