I'm biased, but I definitely want to see Pedro Alvarez in the derby. I don't know of anyone in MLB with as much raw power as he has.
No Reds hopefully. The Derby can screw up a player's swing sometimes, it seems like.
Giancarlo Stanton and I don't care if anyone else even participates.

Adam Dunn!!!
I always thought it'd be cool to have an Alumni HR Derby. Bring some retired players back and see which ones still got it.

Arise and walk, come through. A world beyond that door is calling out for you. Arise and walk, come through. It's calling out for you.
Has Dunn ever been in it? Can't recall, but I don't remember him getting to participate before.
Rounding third and heading for home...
Never understood why Dunn never partook. Sure, he strikes out a bunch but so what? The dude has PRODIGIOUS power that would surely please the populace.
Do you have to be an AS to participate? Or did you have to be one in the past before they allowed players to pick & choose?
I think they prefer it but I think that's silly. I want a HR show...not friggin McCutchen.
Always had to be an all-star until about 4 years ago.
I'd like to see a HR derby playoff leading up to the All Star Game with team champions facing off home and home in shorter contests (ten swing total, maybe) and the division winners and a wild card making it to the actual derby (which again needs to be shorter than it now is.)
