Is David Schoenfield on crack? He's got Machado starting over Cabrera in the All Star game? The fuck? Manny I think is an incredible 3rd baseman, but come on Miggy is hitting .361 with 27 HR and 88 RBI and he's OBP is .452. I don't get it

Looks like they have 4 OF reserves in Dominic Brown, Carlos Gomez, Andrew McCutchen and Michael Cuddyer.

Hard to argue those....the biggest beef would have to be with Bryce Harper....but that's the fans vote and quite honestly I want to see him there as well.

Lol I thought the the same thing when I saw it. Puig will win the NL by a landslide with his highlight reel so far.
