>The Mets Police comment that there may not be any Mets on the All-Star team got me to thining. Yes, the votes are still coming in so this could change, but thought I’d take a shot at what players will make up the NL All-Star team next month (assuming the current vote leaders remain so).
All teams are represented. There are 11 pitchers (7 starters and 4 relievers)
The Cubs have 5 players, while six teams are represented by only one.
For the record the Mets have 3.
