Congratulations to the AL for winning home field in the World Series.

I take it the starters are in bold.

If so, then it's good that someone like Prince Fielder will get the start at first base, nothing against Albert Pujols, who's a beast on first base.

Now, we have to wait for the reserves and the last man vote. I wonder if Barry Bonds will be on the reserves or try to fight his way in via the last man vote?

I think Craig Monroe should get some kind of prize for managing to get on BOTH league's ballots

On the TBS Selection Show they had Bonds starting, not Soriano. Although being a Cubs fan I wouldn't mind it this way.
