On Tuesday, Carl Crawford became the fourth player in major league history to be named MVP of the All Star Game without driving in a run. (Adam Jones drove in the most-important run, but that's another story.)Oriole great Brooks Robinson is among that group of RBI-less MVPs. Robinson took home the 1966 MVP award after going 3-for-4 with a triple and a run in a game that also was played in St. Louis. He earned the honor even though the American League lost 2-1 to the National League.

Poll: August Collapse
----------------------
Wow, I'm in the minority. I chose that the Orioles would collapse in August, but that's based on Huff/Scott/Sherrill being traded. They're kind of hard to replace with two months to go.
All-Star Game MVP

Crawford was a deserving candidate for MVP and I agree with you that Jones and Granderson were also worthy. But, hey, what can you do? Jones did a lot more than just represent! Yeah baby!
I don't see Scott getting traded. Sherrill is a possibility, but I'd say Huff is most likely to go. They'll struggle given the remaining schedule, but I don't think it will be a collapse on the same level as years past.
Jones definitely did the O's proud last night.
I am afraid that this statement is not correct"
