I am happy to see 5 Tigers getting in without Jim Leyland’s help. Magglio Ordonez deserves to go due to his .389 batting average. Pudge is a natural all star simply because he’s the best catcher out there. Placido Polanco has earned his way in after 10 years and the .330 batting average isn’t hurting much. Justin Verlander’s recent no hitter probably didn’t hurt in the player’s voting. Carlos Guillen was another player’s choice.
Shefield would be an obvious choice but but he irritates people by running his mouth. Kenny Rogers would be another obvious choice but he’s only had 2 starts this year.
All in all I think it’s going to be a strong national league team.
