    Everything Looks Correct except Sandoval at Third.

    I admit he is having an excellent year, but David Wright should be the Starter.

    His homeruns are lacking, but his average is well over .300.

    Also for the NL Outfield, where is Ryan Braun? If he is not a starter he should at least be a reserve.

    For the AL Outfield you should have Crawford starting. You can’t forget the 6 SBs in a game. 37 so far this year.

    Also you have to Brandon Phillips as a 2B reserve.

    Other than those few comments your All Star Predictions seem correct.

    id switch PABLO Sndoval and David wright around…id also add Brian Wilson to the RPs, hes having a better year than last year, and still throws 100mph
