Troy Tulowitzki just hopes no one will hold any grudges when he picks the National League participants for the Home Run Derby at the All-Star Game. The Colorado Rockies shortstop will serve as captain of the NL side and select the four other members for the derby. Jose Bautista of the Toronto Blue Jays is in charge of the American League. "To be the captain, I dont know if thats something Im looking forward to because of how tough the decisions are going to be," Tulowitzki said Monday before the Rockies played the St. Louis Cardinals. "You cant put everybody that wants to participate on your team. So with that, you open yourself up. "But, at the same time, Im honoured to be the National League captain." The event will be held July 14 at Target Field, the night before the showcase game in Minneapolis. Bautista is a two-time major league home run champion. Tulowitzki has hit at least 25 homers in three of the past four seasons. Although the honour was just recently bestowed on Tulowitzki, hes already mulling over his options. Giancarlo Stanton of Miami is high on his list, especially since he leads the league in homers with 20. Yasiel Puig of the Los Angeles Dodgers is also a consideration. Tulowitzki may even select teammate Justin Morneau, especially since the first baseman came up in the Twins organization and it would be a homecoming. "That would be neat for him," said Tulowitzki, who has 18 homers this season. "Obviously, hes a guy I have a relationship with." Given Tulowitzkis relationship with St. Louis outfielder Matt Holliday, he could be a pick, too. Tulowitzki spent some time catching up with his former teammate before Mondays game. Did Holliday lobby to be included? "I dont think so," Tulowitzki said, smiling. "Holliday is just a good friend of mine, someone that I have a great deal of respect for. "If he wanted to participate, hed definitely be someone on the list, but he wasnt (lobbying)." Tulowitzki is hoping players around the NL reach out to him. Rockies pitcher Brett Anderson, whos currently on the disabled list, wrote on his Twitter account: "Fingers crossed Tulo picks me for the home run derby!" Hes listening -- and doesnt want to hear excuses about how the derby may mess up a batters stroke. "You take a look during (batting practice), sometimes Ill go out there and try to hit a home run on every single pitch," Tulowitzki explained. "Its no different from being in the Home Run Derby. "Those are my thoughts. I dont really want to entertain that thought, either. You get back on track. And if youre not doing good, you put some (work in the cage). Its not because of a Home Run Derby." Andre Iguodala Jersey .

Debate among drivers over whether F1 could introduce a head protection device onto cars has been reignited at the Russian GP after Red Bull gave a first public test to their aeroscreen concept.The partial canopy has split opinion, but Alonso, one of the grids most experienced figures, believes there should be no argument if a concept proves it can reduce injuries to drivers. Daniel Ricciardo completes a single installation lap with Red Bulls new aeroscreen canopy I think it is a must for safety. We dont need heroes in the sport right now, he told Sky Sports F1.We saw many incidents and many occasions in the last couple of years. Probably all the deaths we had in Formuula 1 and junior categories came from head injuries.dddddddddddd Fernando Alonso says that F1 doesnt need heroes right now So I think we dont want anyone getting hurt in the future. If there is a solution in place, and it seems it can be a solution, lets introduce it.The McLaren driver suggested the aeroscreen looked better than the halo that Ferrari previously tested, but hopes there are more ideas in the pipeline before F1s governing body settles on one design. Ferrari have previously tested a halo cockpit protection device We need to trust the FIA on the decision. They have all the information about which one is better, comfortable, safe, he said.There are many factors we cant control, we just look from the outside, but the Red Bull solution probably looks a little bit better from an aesthetic point of view. The FIA will decide the best one - and hopefully there are more options coming. Every race live in 2016 Sky Sports F1 brings you every race live in 2016.
