It has been one of the biggest debates over the last week: did Jacob Misiorowski deserve to be an All-Star after only making five starts at the MLB level in his career? Simply being selected to the All-Star games puts him in the top 10% of players all time. Not only that, he did it faster than any player before him, cutting the previous record of 11 games, set by Paul Skenes last year, in half.
Naturally, there were a lot of very loud critics of giving Misiorowski such a prestigious honor. The body of work may not be there compared to other players this season alone, with Cristopher Sánchez being the pitcher that most pointed to as deserving the spot.
