In case you missed it, MLB released their final update on All-Star Game voting before the starters are named on Sunday. I'm going to post the leading vote-getters below. I want you to try and point out a trend here.

For starters (for lack of a better term), the Royals appear to be losing their stranglehold on the starting spots. Also, if you look under the "club" category, there's a distinct lack of "Braves" in that category. Not even A.J. Pierzynski is in the running anymore. So, as if it wasn't obvious before, it appears that this is going to be one of those seasons where the Braves are going to be one of those teams that only gets one player in because it's required. So, who do you think is going to be the Braves' representative in Cincinnati for the All-Star game? Or, who do you want to go to the All-Star game?
Anyways, there are nine games around the league, and there are five games going on right now. If you've got MLB.TV, go ahead and fire it up and join the rest of the community in the comments section. It's an open thread, so talk about whatever you want below.
