Re: Buster Posey and Miguel Cabrera Round Out the Candidates for MLB 13 The Show Cove

Since it's now confirmed I'll have no biased choice to vote for, guess I'll actually have to decide between the list of guys as to who to vote for.

For sure I won't vote for CC.

I'm thinking maybe vote for McCutchen.

It wasn't announced until end of January that Bautista would be on cover of MLB12 in Canada, so makes me think it'd be around similar time again this year if there is Canadian cover.

Since they're having voting, I wouldn't mind voting for MLB13 cover in Canada. Options should be Lawrie,Reyes,Dickey,Johnson. No Bautista since he was on MLB12 already.

I'm the exact opposite. Verlander and Granderson will always be some of my favorite players, because I've watched them since they were in AA.

Back on topic, Vote Miggy early, vote Miggy often!

Plus, he's on the West Coast. We need a little somethin'. Either he or Kemp.
That's not something a hardcore Giants fan would say!

I really hope Cutch gets it, but I have a feeling it will be Cabrera or Posey. I would be ok with Cabrera or Posey, but as a die hard bucco fan, I would be crushed if Cutch didn't! VOTE CUTCH!

I didn't play HR derby last year so I'm not sure if the batter wearing a hat is new, otherwise it looks like Posey is wearing a new style of batting glove, and it might just be me (and the fact that the pitcher is throwing slow) but I can actually pick up the spin on the ball (which looks a little bigger IMO but its probably due to the camera angle)...

Actually, that video wasn't up when I posted. That, or it didn't load up on my page at all. I was at my school when I posted earlier, so go figure. Plus, I was probably too busy working on my little cross-controller idea.

But what I saw was a ball trail and a new HRD camera angle (seeing it from the batter's point of view). I like the camera because it kind of leaves you in suspense. I don't know if I like the ball trail at all, but if there is an option to turn it off, we're all good. It looked like they were hitting a multi-colored ball, too. You could even recognize the spin more, which was kind of legit. They have the Posey stride and follow-through as well.

I'm not sure what it is, but honestly I think it stems from the fact that everybody loved him before he proved himself (at least in front of them). Yeah, he showed us something, but he never proved himself. That makes it blind love, and I don't care for blind love. Probably the same reason I wasn't the biggest J.T. Snow fan. He could field, but in the later years as a Giant, that was it. Now I've watched and loved Posey since FSU, so my love kind of "went away" when everyone else jumped on his bandwagon. At least he's proven now.

I'm like that with many things, though. If we already know that someone is a highlight good player, I like to look around and find other things that are equally as good, if not better... or just become a fan of something else in general. It's like when a band releases a CD with a few singles; yeah, everyone has and loves the singles. Let's find the other hidden gems on that album that are worth loving.

EDIT: Totally realized you were talking about Kemp, not Posey haha. Well... I like some of the Dodgers players, even though I don't like the team. I like other teams less though (Cubs and Yankees, and A's before Moneyball). Anyway, I was just referring to the west coast love that is needed around here.
