Joc Pederson actually waited for the ball to land

Vlad got about 10 extra swings by not waiting on the ball to land

Still think he doesnt belong? Tied josh hamiltons insane record


No denying he can hit the ball long and hard but the dude doesn't even have double digit career homers. To me you should have to be amongst the league leaders in homers to qualify.

He's Vladimir Guerrero Jr, this is a popularity event, and he just broke the round record. He deserves the spot.

Chapman isn't waiting either. Harper won last year breaking this rule every pitch

Its about entertainment. He's a fan favorite. No doubt he was going to be invited

Pretty sure it was suppose to be there for the safety of the kids looking up for a ball while a rocket comes at their head

Your original point revolves around the idea that this event is about getting all the "best" home run hitters to participate which is just not how this works.

Brocamonte screwed Bregman. Threw a bunch of trash and wasted so much time reaching back for balls. Why weren't the balls in the other basket by his throwing arm like Peterson's pitcher?

I felt sorry for his dad. You know he wanted to put them in there, he just couldn't. He just found out Sunday and didn't get to practice for several weeks like some of the others.
