Who are your all-star game snubs? Who do you think should be in the all-star game, but they didn't get the nod?
 
Lot of people upset Yasial Puig didn't make the game. I don't think he should have made it though, so it was the right decision. Players shouldn't be making the all star game just after a month of playing.

Agreed. There's no denying that he's played some great baseball. But that doesn't mean he should steal the spot from a player who's played well the entire season.
 
Yeah, I am kind of glad that Yasiel Puig didn't get the final vote. Speaking of which, Freeman got the final vote, but he is injured, so he isn't going to play. My snubs are Evan Longoria for the American League and Ian Desmond for the National League.
 
The whole voting process for the MLB All Star Game is screwed up. Since the game actually means something, and is very important to the MLB, the fans shouldn't decide the starters. Also one player from each time shouldn't have to be represented. There is no point to that at all.
 
Yeah, I hate fan voting. By allowing fans to vote, you get bias votes. You have people who vote for players just because they like them or they play for their favorite team. So, the more popular teams usually have more players in the all-star game.
 
I think Brian Dozier not making the All-star team for the AL is a travesty.

Also, my vote for catcher was a write-in for Mike Redmond, so yeah, I think the concept of fan-voting is pretty screwed up and easily ruined.
