The 2017 Major League Baseball Popularity Contest All Star Game is just about six weeks away, and voting has been ongoing for weeks now. The early voting totals were released today, and to the surprise of no one, Bryce Harper has more votes than any other NL player.
Also to the surprise of no one, the lists of top vote-getters by position are almost completely devoid of any Cincinnati Reds.
MASN’s Mark Zuckerman conveniently tweeted out the totals to date, which is great if you’re a fan of either the Chicago Cubs or the Washington Nationals (and, I suppose, if you’re actually a fan of the All Star Game itself).
