Who do you like in the derby?

Here are the participants for tonight's 2009 State Farm Home Run Derby:

American League:
Carlos Pena 1B, TB
Brandon Inge 3B, DET
Nelson Cruz OF, TEX
Joe Mauer C, MIN

National League:
Albert Pujols 1B, STL
Adrian Gonzalez 1B, SD
Prince Fielder 1B, MIL
Ryan Howard 1B, PHI

I'm gonna go with Pujols because he's the hometown guy, and a beast.

Coverage begins at 8:00 p.m. on ESPN.

Feel free to use this as an open thread for whatever you might want to discuss, especially the Yankees and the home run derby.

    Chris Berman makes me want to stab my eardrums with a pencil. This clown's act was old 20 years ago. WTF is he still on TV?
