FYI, hold your protests -- I did not include Shaun Marcum in the list because of the homer-vote factor. I did include Griffey because, well, it just seems wrong that he won't be there ...

I figured Moose would START the game in Yankee Stadium, so how he doesn't even make the roster, I just don't know.

Others considered as candidates for the list: Cole Hamels, Aubrey Huff, Xavier Nady and Jose Reyes. Any others?

The decision to choose Varitek over Navarro was bizarre.  Varitek was an All-Star quality player in 2005, and has been vile in 2008.

Ack.  Varitek was an All-Star quality player last in 2005...

I'd rather see Reyes there than Guzman at SS...

Navarro is on the team.  A.J. Pierzynski certainly got snubbed by the players decision to elect Varitek.

Moose deserves to go.  Yeah he's a jerk but he's defied the odds and somehow is pitching very well and yeah it's yankee stadium for the last time..
