I'm expecting at least one argument from DME, but if the All-Star game was tomorrow and there wasn't the rule where a member from every team had to have a representative, here's how my team would look like:
AL:
C- V-Mart
1B- Kevin Youkilis
2B- Ian Kinsler
SS- Jason Bartlett
3B- Russel Branyan (yes, over Longoria)
OF- Jason Bay
OF- Adam Jones
OF- Carl Crawford
SP- Zach Grienke
SP- Justin Verlander
SP- Edwin Jackson
RP- Frank Fransisco
RP- Papelbon
RP- Matt Thorton (without my ChSox bias- Fernando Rodney)
P- Erik Bedard
P- Jered Weaver
P- Roy Halladay
P- Mark Buerhle
NL:
C- Pudge
1B- Pujols
2B- Chase Utley
3B- Ryan Zimmerman
SS- HanRam
OF- Raul Ibanez
OF- Carlos Beltran
OF- Brad Hawpe
SP- W-Rod
SP- Johan Santana
SP- Dan Haren
RP- Fransisco Cordero
RP- K-Rod
RP- Trevor Hoffman
P- Johnny Cueto
P- Tim Linececum
P- Javy Vazquez
P- The Buzzsaw

That position was THE hardest one to come out with.
It's gonna be really easy to convince me that someone else should represent the NL over Pudge.
I think my reasoning was that Pugde was #1 among NL catchers in OPS and was the #4 best catcher among HRs. I thought he had the highest wOBA also...
I just know now that I know Russell Martin is first in wOBA maybe I would put him ahead of Pudge.
Who would you pick? Pudge isn't having a bad year but whatever player you think is probably right
you know I was sort of half serious about that Matt Thorton pick. He's #1 among AL reliever in K/9, 3rd in FIP, 5th in ERA, and top in the league in LOB%. HR/9, and K/BB
