★★★ All-Star Weekend and Jose Ramirez some nice articles about his special time coming up. ★★★
From mlb.com and Mandy Bell
CLEVELAND -- This is the year José Ramírez knew he could finally get into the T-Mobile Home Run Derby. ( just click on the link for more )
Ramírez had been invited in the past but said he could never make it work. This year, he was ready to accept the offer and was given the No. 5 seed, as he’s slated to face No. 4 seed Juan Soto in Round 1 on Monday night.
“It was a personal desire,” Ramírez said through team interpreter Agustin Rivero. “This year, it happened, and especially for my family. They want to cheer for me. Especially my mom. She wanted to see me there. I especially want to do it for my mom.”
Step 1: Get permission
Ramírez was sure to stop by manager Terry Francona’s office prior to making the decision, to double-check that his team was OK with his decision to enter the Home Run Derby ----> much more continued in the article ---->Oh and Tito and everyone else said. YES.
......and edit add, Ramírez will become the sixth player to represent Cleveland at the Home Run Derby. Albert Belle was part of the fun from 1993-95, Manny Ramirez joined Belle in ‘95, Jim Thome was there in ‘97 and ‘98, Grady Sizemore broke the 10-year spell without a Cleveland player in 2008 and Carlos Santana participated in ‘19........

The Home Run Derby and Jose Ramirez's night.
Round 1
Julio Rodriguez (32 home runs) defeats Corey Seager (24 home runs)
Pete Alonso (20 home runs) defeats Ronald Acuna Jr. (19 home runs)
Juan Soto (18 home runs) defeats Jose Ramirez (17 home runs)
. Nice try versus the eventual winner.
Albert Pujols (20 home runs) defeats Kyle Schwarber (19 home runs) in extra time.
Soto heating up in defeat of Ramirez
Soto moves on -- not even needing his 60 seconds of extra time to beat Ramirez. Soto's longest blast was his 17th of the round: a 482-foot rocket just below the concourse in right-center. You get the feeling he might just be warming up for some titanic home runs in the next two rounds.
Round 2
Julio Rodriguez (31 home runs) defeats Pete Alonso (22 home runs)
Juan Soto (16 home runs) defeats Albert Pujols (15 home runs)
Finals
Juan Soto (19 home runs) defeats Julio Rodriguez (18 home runs)

Frustrating loss for the G's last night, hopefully they don't duplicate what they did with the White Sox at Progressive Field - win the first two games of a four game set, only to lose the last two and split...
Still, it is enjoyable seeing the Sox struggle this season. Tony LaRussa is, well, a dick.
Will be fun watching the Guardians down the stretch. A lot of young talent, with a lot more coming up in the next season or so. They have a lot of decisions to make, with the logjam of talent they have and will have in the outfield and middle infield.

Guardians 48-45 .516 (57.4%) complete -2 GB. With 69 games to go this young team is doing much better than anyone in baseball expected. And Tito is a great second half manager, always has been.

It will be interesting to see if the G's do anything concerning the fast approaching trade deadline (August 2nd).
They are probably a year ahead of schedule in regards of contending for the A.L. Central crown, but here we are, it's still a thing. Their farm system is packed, they have a glut of middle-infielders, and perhaps they can get someone to take Franmil Reyes off their hands. (I blame myself for his struggles this season. I got a Guardians shirt with his name and number on it before the season.)
