Before the Ian Snell brouhaha starts up again -- just as in our last poll, which was for AL non-pitchers (of which he is neither), this is for NL non-pitchers (of which he is just one) ... so, yes, the Pittsburgh rep is less than ideal right now. But if not Snell, by the terms of this poll, then who?

Ryan Howard doesn't even make a "who got snubbed list?"?!

I thought about Howard, too -- but take a moment and ask yourself, does this:

• Ryan Howard .256/21/65

... best ANY of these?

• Prince Fielder .284/29/68
• Derrek Lee .331/6/42
• Albert Pujols .309/16/51
• Dmitri Young .339/8/43

Those are the four 1B on the NL roster right now. Fielder starts, so you can't drop him; Lee and Young are both hitting better than .330, with good RBI totals -- not Howard's level, true, but in the big picture, the only one on the list who Howard could legitimately argue he bears replacing is Pujols, and if that'd happened, Albert would have 100% of the vote in this poll.

Rollins is the Phillie most snubbed, I think. Either would be a better choice than Rowand, but I can understand LaRussa not wanting to have five 1B on the roster, and Howard is the odd man out. Yes, yes, Adrian Gonzalez (.265/14/62) is on the list and probably shouldn't be, by that same argument.  My bad there, though AG's Gold-Glove calibre defence at least bears mention, too.
