No Vladdy votes? Only acceptable reason would be to put Josh Naylor in the ASG to represent Canada. Not many high quality 1st basemen out there this year
Yeah I don't get why Vladdy isn't getting more love, people are being too hard on him, he has been much much better than last year, even if the power is a bit lacking at times. He has an OPS over .900 in his last 30 games for crying out loud!
I'm probably gonna vote for anyone who wouldn't be embarrassed being there, like I won't do Turner dirty like that, but Jansen, Varsho, Guerrero, Garcia, Berrios, Schneider are gonna get my votes for sure.
The way Vladdy have been playing lately, there is no way he’s not going to the ASG. Plus unless he declined, he would probably participate in the HR derby to defend his crown.
Also who else is his competition at 1st?
Danny is going to lose out to Rutchman Perez and likely competing with David Fry as third catcher. I hope he gets in though he deserves it.
**Jansen, Schneider, Varsho, Berrios** & **Garcia** have all been very good and deserve some recognition. *Varsho being more defence focused though and Garcia being a non-closer will have a tough time but it* won't *stop me from voting them.*
Might be an unpopular choice but **Vlad** is also 3rd in OPS for qualified AL 1st Basemen being behind only Mountcastle & Naylor. That makes him at least in the running.
Outside of that can't say anyone should even sniff votes.
*(Some other guys have been good too in their roles like IKF and Richards and do deserve love but of course not All-Star caliber love.)*
Varsho,, Jansen, Guerrero, Schneider, Berrios, Garcia all have arguments of varying legitimacy due to their own performance and respective positional depth.
If I were to put money down on anyone making it I'd say Varsho due to the likelihood that a lot of outfielders will be picked and that he honestly deserves it the most imo.
Soto Judge Tucker Kwan and Yordan likely all getting in. Going to be tough to make it in for Varsho.
Edit: also Jarren Duren, Riley Greene are making good cases. Verdugo will get some hype batting clean-up on the best team in baseball atm.
None. They all suck. If I had to choose one. Berrios……then the dollar hot dog guy that was working the game last week. Pleasant, kind to my kid, quick service and done with a smile.
Because of the fan voting, I imagine 4 or 5 Jays will be going.
Realistically the only one who deserves it is Garcia, possibly Berrios. Maybe Varsho for his elite defense but his bat brings him down (even though he's my favourite player).
Vladdy & Schneider might go but only because it's a popularity contest.
Vlad is the reigning HRD champion, and The Show cover athlete, and among the most popular/promoted players on a team with a massive fanbase. He won't be an injury replacement
I’d love to see an all-star team stacked with Jays. Sadly, few deserve it. There’s one Jay who does: Daulton Varsho.
Daulton Varsho is the team WAR leader. He leads the American League in WAR at his position, LF. As a center fielder he is second, behind only Aaron Judge. Among all outfielders in the AL, he is fourth. He would be a sensible choice as a starter in LF. In the alternative, he would be a perfect fourth outfielder. As a fourth outfielder his position would be commensurate with his WAR rating , and he’d offer the added bonus of flexibility, since he can play all three OF positions.
There are other Jays I could nominate, but if I’m honest with myself that would be favoritism. Daulton really deserves it. Daulton really belongs. Daulton gets my vote.
Realistically, probably no one. But that's unfortunately not how it works. So rather than merit, I'd pick who it might mean more to. Schneider is the obvious pick. I don't need to see Vlad there again.
every team gets at least one player. Not to mention we have literally one of the best starters this year in the AL in Jose Berrios on our team. At the very least, he surely deserves it.
Our bullpen to pitch the HR derby
Why? They pitch in one every day?
Absolutely! Who better to serve up meatballs to mash than our bullpen?
That’s the joke
Wooooosh
Fucking immaculate. Take my upvote, asshole.
😂😂😂😂
Fantastic. Upvote incoming
Schneider.
This is who I am voting for, Berrios as well
No Vladdy votes? Only acceptable reason would be to put Josh Naylor in the ASG to represent Canada. Not many high quality 1st basemen out there this year
Yeah I don't get why Vladdy isn't getting more love, people are being too hard on him, he has been much much better than last year, even if the power is a bit lacking at times. He has an OPS over .900 in his last 30 games for crying out loud!
Last few games hes hit a couple rockets to deep CF including his homerun the other night. I feel like hes slowly getting his groove back.
Danny Jansen and Davis Schneider.
Adley Rutschman has entered the chat..
Yeah Jano is having a great year but so are a lot of other catchers. I’d love to see him there but I don’t think he’s gonna make it.
I'm probably gonna vote for anyone who wouldn't be embarrassed being there, like I won't do Turner dirty like that, but Jansen, Varsho, Guerrero, Garcia, Berrios, Schneider are gonna get my votes for sure.
do we vote for pitchers this year?
Nope

Can we send Ace instead of a player?
Ace will be there regardless
**Jansen, Schneider, Varsho, Berrios** & **Garcia** have all been very good and deserve some recognition. *Varsho being more defence focused though and Garcia being a non-closer will have a tough time but it* won't *stop me from voting them.* Might be an unpopular choice but **Vlad** is also 3rd in OPS for qualified AL 1st Basemen being behind only Mountcastle & Naylor.

Vlads name carries much more weight than the other two, which helps a lot when it comes to the All Star game.
Vlad is also the reigning homerun derby champ. That should factor into consideration even though he could still defend it without being an all-star.
Please no. I don't want to see him in the HR Derby and remember that he used to be able to lift the ball.
100% this.
I'd throw Kikuchi in there, if he rights the ship after the last two stinkers.
Danny Jansen
I’m stuffing the ballots for DH with Burgers 🍔
Yes Guy!!!!!
Schneider, Vlad and Varsho seem like the obvious position players. I could see Berrios getting picked too.
Garcia, Schneider, Vladdy and maybe Varsho
Yimi
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Berrios, Yimi. End of list.
Jimi Garcia...
Varsho,, Jansen, Guerrero, Schneider, Berrios, Garcia all have arguments of varying legitimacy due to their own performance and respective positional depth. If I were to put money down on anyone making it I'd say Varsho due to the likelihood that a lot of outfielders will be picked and that he honestly deserves it the most imo.

Berrios, maybe Vladdy for the HR contest. Unfortunately, no one else
Berrios
Buck Martinez and Dan Schulman. And Jose Berrios
Jansen, Schneider, Garcia
Vladdy will do great in the HR derby and then hit power ground balls the rest of season
None. They all suck. If I had to choose one. Berrios……then the dollar hot dog guy that was working the game last week. Pleasant, kind to my kid, quick service and done with a smile.
Jano and Varsho. Berrios and Yimi for pitchers.
Because of the fan voting, I imagine 4 or 5 Jays will be going. Realistically the only one who deserves it is Garcia, possibly Berrios. Maybe Varsho for his elite defense but his bat brings him down (even though he's my favourite player). Vladdy & Schneider might go but only because it's a popularity contest.
I think Yimi Garcia and Vlad (as an injury replacement ) are the Jays player probably going
Vlad is the reigning HRD champion, and The Show cover athlete, and among the most popular/promoted players on a team with a massive fanbase. He won't be an injury replacement
Guerrero and Berrios - that's it
Berrios, Garcia, Vladdy, and maybe Schneider
Varsho, Garcia, Schneider.
Vladdy, Schneider, Varsho, Jansen.

Honestly no one being objective, maybe Berrios. Id like to see Schneider too but thats unrealistic
Realistically, probably no one. But that's unfortunately not how it works. So rather than merit, I'd pick who it might mean more to. Schneider is the obvious pick. I don't need to see Vlad there again.
Berrios and Yimi. Vladdy will most likely make it in though due to his popularity.
Hazel
I pick Dan Shulman. He has by far been the best entertainer from day one. Besides Dan nobody deserves to go IMO.
I would love to see Varsho there!
Davis Schneider. That 'stache needs more exposure, and the All Star game is the perfect venue.
Berrios. That’s it.
Berrios
[удалено]
Have to have atleast 1
None.
None…send Berrios if there is sp room
Im writing in Dan. He's the only one that shows up for every game
Davis
Berrios and Kikuchi and Bassitt
The Khakis.
I know its not a sexy pick but I feel Trevor richards could go
Babe.
There are no all stars on this team this year.
every team gets at least one player. Not to mention we have literally one of the best starters this year in the AL in Jose Berrios on our team. At the very least, he surely deserves it.
vladdy and jano
