Well, I'm not really objected to it. But why not invite a few other players to the home run derby if Howard is going to participate in it. How about Sammy Sosa? Lance Berkman? Adam Dunn? Carlos Pena? These guys didn't make the all star teams & all of them except for Pena, have been on all star teams in the past & home run derbies. Pena is a guy that could participate in it this year & he also was deserving of all star consideration. Pena being in the home run derby would be good for baseball because he plays on arguably the least recognized team in baseball. It would be good exposure for him & the Devil Rays.
