Morning Notes: M’s head into break with a win
Assist by The Mitten —
Outfielder Raul Ibanez pointed to Adrian Beltre as the perfect example of leadership and “playing the game right.” That’s good because Beltre may be one of a handful of players still on this team when Mariners interim general manager Lee Pelekoudas is done turning over the roster. HR Derby preview SeaTown Sports has the lineups, a prediction and a man crush on Grady Sizemore. Fabulous!

All-Star Game 2008: The Home Run Derby - Handicapping the Contestants
baseballmastermind.com 7/14/2008 — I love the home run derby (as with most things baseball). It’s a contest of power that proves nothing, but it puts on a great show for the fans. Fans want to be able to debate all of the nuances of the game and again, while the home run derby proves nothing, it provides fodder for such debates. This season, just for the heck of it, I’m going to attempt to handicap the Home Run Derby.
