Last year it was the Royals, this year, it is the Cubs. I am beyond pleased that so many fans have voted for the Cubs players to get into the All-Star game, and truthfully, many of the Cubs players that will be on the NL All-Star Team will be deserving. However, something needs to change with either the voting, or the significance of the All-Star Game.
Last year, going into the final voting update, the Royals had 5 players that would be starting at their respective positions. One of those players was Omar Infante, and he would have been starting over Jose Altuve.
