Concerning the All-Star Game... Notice that the last pitcher on the mound for the AL played for one of the Yankees big opponents, and so Torre really couldn't keep pitching him... Obvious solution, the last pitcher put into the game for each team must be from the managers team. The managers are already stacking with their own players... Make them take the consequences. I'd have loved to see clemens or rivera up there for innings 9-15 with Torre sweating it out... It'd be his own fault for using his other pitchers...

For Curt Schilling's take on the subject (he's currently headed for 26 wins and 346 SO's on only 24 walks, so i'd listen to the guy) read this article.
