Selecting an All-AL East team
Photo by Cole Burston/Getty ImagesMajor League Baseball recently announced their All-MLB selections and we are getting on that groove to take the time and select our All-AL East team for the 2021 season. This division had four playoff contenders and a rebuilding team with some very exciting individual performers, so we should have a great pool of players to pick from.
Catcher: Mike Zunino (Rays)
.216/.301/.559 - 4.5 fWAR
Zunino had one of the more underrated 2021 campaigns in all of Major League Baseball. In fact, despite the flashiness of Perez’ HR total, Zunino actually had the better wRC+ (134 to 127) and also led all catchers in the league in WAR.
