The Cincinnati Reds are close to the Chicago Cubs in the standings, but far away in All Star votes. Some fans said that the Cubs were at it again with the entire Cubs’ infield on pace to be voted onto the team when the first vote count for the All Star Game was released. Yet, the national media keep saying that this is the best infield in baseball.
For the Reds the argument can be made for five players that they should at least be considered. Currently the voters underappreciate the seasons of first baseman Joey Votto, shortstop Zack Cozart, and left fielder Adam Duvall in 2017.
