Heard a good idea on ATH just now. Select your AS team as usual...but then, each starting pitcher has to agree to pitch at least 3 innings unless they rack up a ton of pitches through those 3 (which is usually not a problem in the AS game)...if not, they can come to get introduced and all that but they have an alternate picked to pitch instead. Eliminates any pitching problems and avoids having David Wright vs. JD Drew for homefield.

And most of the panel said that putting home field in the WS is a good idea. I know the numbers prove otherwise but I don't really see what the big deal about homefield is unless you get a tie game in the 9th or something. Maybe I only think that because I saw the Giants win 11 straight on the road so I know that homefield doesn't matter to some people.
