Earth To Mr. Rogers

I see that Toronto's Roy Halladay is going to be out a month and, unfortunately, will miss the All-Star Game. Boston's Matt Clement has been selected to make replace the Blue Jays righthander. You know where I am going with this, don't you? The only thing now stopping the Tigers' Jeremy Bonderman from appearing is one Kenny Rogers.

Earth to Kenny: if you were really going to accept responsibility for your actions, you would not appeal your suspension, thus you would be ineligible for the game. If you were really sorry, you would avoid making the game look any worse and skip attending regardless of your eligibility. If you wanted to appear like a decent human being, you will not go and ask that Terry Francona take hometown guy Jeremy Bonderman to fill your spot on the A.L. roster.

There is only one thing between Bonderman and an All-Star berth, Kenny Rogers. Step aside, Mr. Rogers.
