I'm hoping someone else surges past him. I'm not a big Hanley fan, but he deserves it a lot more the Rollins.

This isn't too surprising considering the Phillies won the World Series. Hopefully Hanley passes him as he should probably be the NL starter.

You may want to check his last 12 games and his defensive statistics. There is no denying that April and May were not great, but since Tracy has taken over Tulo is on a tear.

Hanley should be the starting SS and hopefully the voters take over, but if they take 2 NL SS's then Tulo would be a very good possibility.

I'm a HUGE Rollins fan and I agree Tulo is better than Rollins this year.

That doesn't warrant Tulo an AS appearance.

Hanley should be starting and, at this point, either Tejada, Escobar, or Guzman should be the reserve. Although either of them would be a solid reserve for the AS team.

I'm sorry to burst your bubble, Tulo has LESS THAN zero chance of making the All-Star team.

What does 10 HR's, 27 RBI, 9 SB's and a .989 F% mean??? He is on pace for 26 homers, 23 SB's, and the Gold Glove...he hit .327 on a bad hammy after the all-star break last year. He is a slow starter for sure, but he is right there now.

I don't know about less than zero, I would say zero.

But us Rockies fans haven't had much to brag about until a few weeks ago. Tulo is 11-for-30 with 4 HRs in the last 10 games. Relevant to the All-Star game? Nope. I just like the numbers.

I also agree that Tejada deserves props this year.

I hate to bring you back to the 6th grade but there is no such thing as "less than ZERO chance."

Just because I'm a Tulo fan and I posted about Rollins not deserving 1st place doesn't mean I'm being a Tulo homer. I've already stated that Hanley should be starting. I'm simply saying that if Tulo's next 12 games are like his last, then he could get heavy consideration as a back up if they take 2 SS's.

You know what? I will take "less than" back. B/c by some miracle, Varitek made it as a reserve last year. :lol: I guess there is still some slim hope for Tulo fans ;)

That is basically it, as a fan, I'm holding out some slim hope that he relieves Hanley at the All-Star game.

When do the coaches announce the final rosters?

C'mon...you really didn't think I literally meant "less than zero" did you? Don't let your love for Tulo cloud your intelligence.

You are a true "Tulo homer" in this sense. His last 12 games means absolute crap for an AS appearance, especially the way Tulo has been hitting ALL year. Especially when there are three, if not four (if you count Ryan Theriot), SS that have been TWO TIMES better than Tulo!

I'm a homer myself. I still vote for Adam Jones and Nick Markakis for the AS game, I can admit that. But with their recent massive slumps, only one is going to make it. That is just reality. You need to face it too.

I wish someone else would have posted this...I'm a Tulo homer because I mentioned his recent tear and that there is a chance.

Why in the world would you count Ryan Theriot over Tulo? A lot of the time the stars get voted in even if their performance isn't up to par with some other guys. That's just the way voting goes. Even Cubs fans would rather see Tulowitzki out there in the AS game over Ryan Theriot.

b/c Theriot pretty much matches Tulo offensively stat for stat except for HR and AVG. Tulo has the edge in HR and Theriot has the edge in AVG by almost 30 points. Add the flavor of Cub fans and your get your popular vote.
