Shameless self-promotion: The All-Star Roster edition

First off, Zack Greinke is a legitimate All-Star, and not a pity-representative. That feels good. (See? Now this post IS sorta Royals-related!) At my other blog, Getting to First Base, I looked at a bunch of position players who are also legitimate All-Stars, whom the voters chose correctly. Check it out and/or tell me I’m an idiot in the comments, if you’d like. 

A post or two will come soon for all the players whose famous names got them voted in, and which other players should have gotten the nod.
