    I honestly don't get why MLB had to remove A.S. ballots from MLB Parks, this year being the 1st year ever, to only vote via I-Net, if ya' got no I-net, then ya' can't vote, sad.....

    Why anyone is allowed to vote 35 times is besides me.....

    I could use my email, my Wife's, my Son's, or create up to 5 email's of my own, and vote 280 times.....

    WTF- The KC vote is usually low, since KC is not a major MLB market.......and I wouldn't be surprised if someone is hacking beyond those few hundred ballots, the system is easily compromised........

    IMO, I could see Lorenzo Cain, or the Moose gain a spot, but that's it......

    That's more like it but I think Posey belongs behind the plate.

    Molina = 0/20/278 with a .324 OBP & a .651 OPS

    Posey = 9/36/294 with a .367 OBP & a .828 OPS

    ...yeah, and I'd question Matt Carpenter at 3B too.

    Perez, Hosmer, Infante, Moustakas, Escobar, Cain, Gordon, Rios, and Morales

    or

    Vogt, Cabrera, Altuve, Donaldson, Iglesias, Trout, Jones, Brantley, and Cruz

    Kind of easy to tell which of these two teams is an All-Star team. That isn't to say none of the Royals deserve to get in but none of them should because of this crazy ballot-stuffing system the MLB has encouraged.
