Be careful when you're voting. The check boxes at the top sign you up for spam emails from MLB and Monster.com. If you uncheck them on your first ballot but vote again, the boxes are checked. To be even sneakier, they auto-populate the other fields (including your email address). MLB pulled a fast one over me, and I am considering complaining to the FCC.

Aaron G...the notice on MLB.com says standard text messaging rates apply. You may be charged by your mobile phone carrier for fees. That has nothing to do with whether or not you have unlimited texting. Just like when people vote for videos on MTV and people on American Idol. They usually charge around $.99. I hope for your sake your cell phone provider doesn't charge. If not, send the bill to Longoria. i would check before you vote any more and please anyone else on the blog check alos. Just vote online. I have voted 250 times.
