I mean they both started in the 2014 AL Wild Card game, did they not?

Can somebody explain this?

This. Who ever thinks that average fans should be looking up advanced statistics for players to vote them into the All Star Game is bat shit crazy.

I see. :)

Jettio has a history of posting some crazy shit, I haven't seen him around for quite some time.

Is there a standard for voting for all stars? Back when I was a kid and actually voted I voted for the guys I wanted to see play. Didnt really give a shit what type of season they were having.

Dude I'm on the floor right now about to pass out. Please help me. Please.

I've voted a lot and lots. And I've been spreading word. Can't you see why the voting is narrowed between Donaldson and Moustakas?

Just saw Donaldson's catch.
Alex Gordon would be impressed.

That's what I've been trying to tell him. The only stats listed on the ballot are AB, AVG, HR, RBI, and SB. Do you honestly think every fan in the country is looking up fWAR, wRC, and wOBA to ensure they are properly picking each position?

So, because fans are stupid and ill-informed we should just accept their stupidity.

Obviously, that has always happened on this website with sports takes, where everyone is given a participation ribbon for posting a point of view, no matter how inane or idiotic.

DeMarco Murray had better counting stats than Jamaal Charles last year. Must mean he's a better back.

Don't blame the fans. Blame the ballot.

Donaldson at 30 HR's

Donaldson was a monster tonight. Just a force at the plate even when he makes an out. Had a great bare-hand and turned two very nice and important double-plays. He also has the intensity that you love from your star players. Just a tough guy to play against.

Yup. He does lots of wonderful things to make your baseball team better. That's why I love him.
