All Star Ballot

[donniesyracuse]

I wait as long as possible before I vote. No Yankee position players deserve it again this year, but Tanaka, Betances, and Miller should make it.

These are my picks, show me yours:

American League
C: Perez (Royals)
1B: Cabrera (Tigers)
2B: Altuve (Astros)
SS: Bogaerts (Red Sox)
3B: Machado (Orioles)
OF: Trout (Angels)
OF: Bradley (Red Sox)
OF: Saunders (Blue Jays)
DH: Ortiz (Red Sox)

National Leagues
C: Ramos (Nationals)
1B: Rizzo (Cubs)
2B: Murphy (Nationals)
SS: Seager (Dodgers)
3B: Carpenter (Cardinals)
OF: Ozuna (Marlins)
OF: Fowler (Cubs)
OF: Marte (Pirates)

There is no way both Miller and Betances will both go, not sure about Tanaka. I think Beltran deserves to be there. I will just go with my Mets. Familia, Thor, and Cespedes.

yes, by saying "should," I meant that they deserve to go.

I'll give you my full analysis tonight but here is a couple thoughts. I live in KC. Even though I'm not a Royals fan as my primary team, I've grown to be a huge Hosmer fan so I'm taking him at first base. He's a really good player and just an awesome leader in the clubhouse so I give him the nod for that. I'm putting Trumbo or Mookie Betts over Saunders in the OF but leaning toward Trumbo.

Fourth among NL Outfielders in wRC+ and wOBA, fifth in WAR.

If you like old-people stats, OBP = .398

I think Miller will go, I think the Yankees will get Miller and Beltran.
