Dozier should not only be an All-Star, but he should be starting the game at 2B for the AL, IMO. Although Kipnis has a pretty good case. Altuve is a good player but he is not deserving from a production standpoint to start the All-Star game.
I agree, although I'm admittedly biased. Leads the majors in extra base hits, 18 homers, 2nd in runs scored. And plays gold glove defense.
Well add one more vote for Dozier. I just voted for him as the AL choice and Kershaw for the NL.
Dozier came up short in the vote for the All Star game. Oh well. But he came up big again tonight. Twins down 6-1 in the 9th to the Tigers, come back to win 8-6. Dozier walked off with a 3 run upper deck shot. 2nd walk off homer during this home stand.
Some mediot predicted the Mets to go after Andrus. I had a good laugh at that because in no way does that help your offense or defense.
It was a dumb contract when they signed it.
It is now because he has not developed into the offensive player he showed early on. Teams were trying to get ahead of the curve by signing players to a longterm contract, buying on the cheap their first 2 or 3 FA years. Cleveland started it years ago when they locked up guys like Baerga and Lofton.
