Well in respect to the managers and the selection process, it kills it when everyone team needs to be represented. I mean for instance, Johnny Cueto should be an all star, but because u have to put Starlin Castro from the Cubs, an Astro, and a Colorado Rockies player on the team means people like Cueto is off. I always liked this rule in the past, but it seems a bit dumb now...

Putting an Astro in this year should have nothing to do with the team rep rule.

Seriously??? I guess I haven't seen the full rosters, but thats not good. LaHair I'd say so, but yeah, how about Lawrie over Castro, or yeah even Lawrie over Desmond?

Good to see the Giants still have a ton of band wagoners from the 2010 campaign.

Austin Jackson is way more deserving than Edwin, and didn't make it. Once again, THE COACHES/PLAYERS FAIL, NOT THE FANS.

I blame it on them having to put Mauer and Butler on the team...

Reddick is by far the best player on the A's but friggin Ryan Cook makes it. Ugh. As much as I love Dunn and Butler, they didn't deserve it over guys like Austin Jackson or Reddick; and do they really need three DH's?

What's wrong with Altuve? Dude deserved to go. Hill should have made it over Uggla. Uggla shouldn't be in the game and he's the starter lol
Lol at Greinke, McDonald, Bumgarner and Johan not even being on the team
Kipnis, Austin Jackson, Edwin Encarnacion also were deserving

Trevor Plouffe is an animal. He's going to end up with 35+ homers this year.

So this is how I'd do the All-Star lineups if I were manager
NL
1. Cabrera CF (Kemp is injured, so Braun goes to LF, and Cabrera moves to CF)
2. Furcal SS
3. Votto 1B
4. Braun LF
5. Beltran RF
6. Wright DH (If he wants to, he should be starting at 3B)
7. Posey C
8. Uggla 2B
9. Sandoval 3B
SP Dickey...I love the story man.
AL
1. Jeter SS
2. Granderson CF
3. Hamilton LF
4. Bautista RF
5. Fielder 1B
6. Cano 2B
7. Ortiz DH
8. Beltre 3B
9. Napoli C
SP. Weaver...this was hard man, he has one of the lowest ERAs and the lowest WHIP, I'd give him the nod so far.
