I can't imagine what kind of shape he'll be in when he emerges considering his only off days will be the all star break

The second place winner was a guy named Ryan Wagner.

Now I guess we know what he's been up to since leaving the Nats.

Wow... I'm not sure even I could sit through 1pm-2am every day save Sunday, and Sunday 1pm-11:30pm, and watch 29 teams I don't care about. The guy won't lose his mind, it's open to the public and whatnot. But excruciatingly boring? Umm, yeah. How lame is it they went with a guy that auditioned for SNL? Get a real fan, not some actor/comedian wannabe. It'll be torture come September, so I don't care, but I get tired of these "reality" crap hiring guys with reels and headshots.

MLB picked a Yankees fan? Shocker. I don't understand this promotion. What does MLB expect to gain? As a fan, I don't care about this guy or the fact that he won an awesome contest.

Fans of everyone but the Yankees or Red Sox had a 0% chance of winning.

It will get long during June, July and August.  September should be great as the races come to a head.

Yet an Orioles fan is there?

Yeah, you're right. Well, it should. Last September would have been incredibly boring. We had what, one real race the last two weeks? But August will be the worst. I'm not sure this loser looking for publicity (The SNL audition really reeks for me. How many people do you know have tried out for a non-reality show? Hell, even a reality show. Although I can't speak, I did try out for Big Brother a couple times five years ago.) knows what he got himself into. He will in another month.
