Fielder has also hit significantly better than Morales as well. So take Bautista out of it. His numbers still don't stack up to Cruz, Fielder, or Rodriguez.

Fielder listed as 1B on All-Star ballot, so irrelevant.
And most of America hates ARoid (outside of NY), so there's a reason he's not getting a lot of votes. Nobody wants to see him in an All-Star game. As much as people want to see Cruz over Morales, I'm sure most would rather see Morales there over ARoid and the voting seems to reflect that. Unlike Cruz, ARoids not even close on votes.
Too bad for him.
