Takeaways
There are 31 first-time All-Stars this time around, which is the most since 2016. It's a testament to how much great, young talent continues to come into the league, sure, but there are several veterans making their first trip as well.
How is this Anthony Rendon's first All-Star Game? It's remarkable but true. NL third base is often loaded and there aren't that many roster spots to go around. Good for him.
We'll get to the snubs in a separate article, but the most mind-boggling to me is Jose Abreu over Luke Voit at first base. It would be understandable if the White Sox needed a rep, but they already had McCann and Giolito (both deservedly so).
Expect Hand to be the closer for the AL, given that this game is taking place in Cleveland's Progressive Field.
The NL has several excellent candidates to DH, but it feels like it should be Bell or Alonso, right?
How about Charlie Morton? Through his age-33 season, he had never made an All-Star team, but now he makes it two straight.
The Astros have the most All-Stars at six -- and none of them are named Jose Altuve.
