I know theres been a couple of threads but with the selections tomorrow who do you thinks on it? Who are some of the lower teams reps?

AL
C - Mauer - V-Mart
1B - Tex,Youk, Miggy, Morneau, Pena - who gets left off? I figure Morneau and Pena.
2B - Kinsler or Pedroia starting? Hill and Cano as backups...
SS - Jeter, Bartlett, Scutaro. I doubt all 3 make it sorry Scutaro
3B - Longoria. Maybe Rolen. A-rod will probably slide in someway. I'd like Young to beat out Rolen and A-rod
OF - Hamilton(will he still play since been injured most of year), Ichiro, Bay, Crawford, Cruz, maybe Granderson, Hunter, Dye
Pitchers - Holladay, Grienke, Felix, Verlander, Beckett, Slowey, Buehrle, Weaver, maybe Porcello or Jackson, Fuentes, Rivera, Nathan, Sherrill(O's Rep), Bailey(A's Rep)

NL
C- Yadi, McCann, Benji Molina
1B - Albert - Howard, Fielder,Gonzalez, Votto(Reds Rep?) hate to see Votto make it with only playing half season
2B - Utley, Sanchez(Pirates rep)
SS - Hanley/J-Roll, Tejada, Guzman hitting decent but dont see Nat's getting him in
3B - Wright...Sandoval, Zimmerman, Chipper(needs to make it couple times to finish career), Reynolds may slide in for HR's
OF - Ibanez, Beltran, Braun, Dunn, Pence, Kemp, Upton, Bruce(Reds Rep if not Votto), Hawpe(Rockies Rep)
Pitchers -Cain, Lincecum, Santana, Billingsly, Marquis(Rockies Rep if not Hawpe), Cueto(Reds Rep), Haren, Josh Johnson, Gallardo, Bell, K-Rod, Cordero(Reds), Wilson, Broxton, Hoffman(one last time), Street(Rock's Rep), Vazquez

Several lower level teams have 3 or 4 options that may make as their rep.

Zobrist will make it in over Cano. Other than that, looked pretty solid!

I meant to put Zorbist in there to and forgot him, that could be a good race.

Hopefully Zach Duke squeezes in there.

I like Duke and he was on my border for making it in.

If he has a real good game today and gets win #9 and goes 7+ and gives up 2 or less runs today do you see him getting in?

The sad thing is, in his 6 losses the Pirates have scored a whopping 5 runs for him...

Ryan Franklin over any of the NL relievers listed there. No one realizes how great of a season he is having.

Ryan Franklin IS having a great year. But in my mind, right now, he is tied with Hoffman for the best closer in the NL; provided you toss out the two moronic instances where Macha put him in in the non-save situations ::facepalm::

was Chicago now Glendale AZ
between Hawpe, Street, Marquis....doubt more than one makes it

same with Mrk B/J Dye situation

think maybe FCordero only Reds since Votto = out for a while and Bruce avg blows

only one Detroit SP (Verlander)

If a pitcher is quetionable on a list and there already = rep from that team, that pitcher will mist likely get bounced

They wil take a closer over adding a 2nd or 3rd rep who is borderline

I really think Edwin Jackson will make the team.

It probably wont happen but Id really like to see Wake make it just once.
It would be VERY nice to see but sadly I don't think Kottaras will be making an All-Star apprearance anytime soon... :lol:

YAY HUNTER!!!!

I really didn't think he would get selected. I'm thrilled and now I have a reason to actually watch the game. If he participates in the HR derby he would be a good pick to go Josh Hamilton. He is a BP superstar!
