Picking his dad is a classic fuckup. Old man is taking too much time to grab balls and poo poo
he's done it before in 2016 so presumably he's aware and just wants to enjoy it with his dad

I loving love the Home Run Derby.
every year I watch it now I am reminded of that Sam Miller piece about a future where Derby evolves into it's own pro sport

Pete Alonso takes the HRD so seriously and it owns
he makes more money from the Derby than he does from playing baseball (a key part of Miller's HRD speculation)

MLB should take the Derby as seriously as Pete does and standardize some stuff. One pitching machine for everyone. First round everyone hits for full time (and any bonus they earn), then go head to head for the rest of it with seeding based on the first round totals.

Poor Seager still has the best non-Julio round, doesn't he?
Every year there's an example like this which demonstrates the need to change the first round to at-large competition

The first year they did the prize money was 2019 and Alonzo was pre-arb for that one and 2021. Lets see how long this streak can go

Joe Buck was mediocre but he was perfectly groomed to be the definition of mediocre. The potential for worse is bottomless.
Joe Davis is legitimately great

MVP should be that Cleveland 2B who snagged the Machado liner to turn two in the first inning

Or Gonsolin
