The All Star Game starters have been announced and as usual, the fans failed again. Just like they do every year, the fans voted in players that aren't even in the top-5 at their position and that is ridiculous. The rosters should only be chosen by managers and players from now on because fans can't seem to pick deserving players. So to give people a reality check, I put together the starting rosters that should have been named and these players are who you should see out there for the first pitch.
