It's suspect that this 2009 campaign will be Ken Griffey Jr's final year in MLB.

If you've been a fan of his I encourage you to put in an All Star ballot for "The Kid".

Thanks for reading.

he is not deserving to be a voted in all star (stat wise) , but they could have a special spot for him for old time sake.

The All Star game is for the fans, therefore you are deserving solely on fan support nothing else.

I would personally like to see him in the home run derby, how fitting would that be?

There was a website dedicated to doing this for Frank Thomas last year. It got nowhere.

I would but I've heard he is a juicer recently.

the all star game should have the BEST players in the game, unfortunately sentiment and blinders cause folks to vote for idiots like Manny Ramirez, who fortunately dropped out of the top 3 in voting. There is certainly no accounting for taste.

Griffey went to the all-star game, maybe a dozen times? why not let the younger, better and more deserving players get their turn in the spotlight. if they want to grant him a special place on the bench that would be fantastic.

If he wants to play in the HR derby, thats great for the fans. However, his presence should not deny a more deserving person from being on the team.

During a Rain Delay at the Rangers game last week I punched 75 ballots...

On everyone I voted for Chris Davis (batting less than .200 after today's game) and on the NL side I just punched the upper top left player in each section. I am a homer....
