L.A. Times: Manny Ramirez falls further behind in All-Star voting

Manny Ramirez’s All-Star candidacy was dealt a severe blow today as the number of votes separating him from a starting role in St. Louis on July 14 increased by almost 100,000 in the latest balloting update.

Ramirez remained in fifth place among National League outfielders with 858,353 votes, leaving him 234,163 behind New York’s Carlos Beltran, who is in third place. Ramirez was 139,789 votes out of third place a week ago.

In-stadium balloting ends on June 28. Fans can vote online at mlb.com until July 2.

So how fur behind is he?

"Farther." Not "further."

Sorry. Big pet peeve.

Forget Manny. Are fans really voting for a guy who has a .261 OBP over Hanley Ramirez?

Fans can vote online at mlb.com until July 2

Wow. Voting ends the day before Manny comes back.
