C- Pudge Rodriguez
Player more deserving- Victor Martinez
1B- David Ortiz
Player more deserving- Justin Morneau
2B- Robinson Cano
Player more deserving- BJ Upton
3B- ARod
I agree with this starter.
SS- Derek Jeter
I personally think Jhonny Peralta and Carlos Guillen are more deserving, but Jeter is suitable.
OF- Manny Ramirez and Ichiro
Players more deserving- Magglio Ordonez, Grady Sizemore, and Tori Hunter
I agree with Vlad being in.
I really don't mind who starts as long as the rest of the team fills out ok. It makes sense to put in the guys that the fans want to see. The all star game is fun to watch, but the starters aren't anything more than winners of a popularity contest. If you think the voting reflects the most deserving players, you're mistaken.
