McCan was tough call. No NL catcher really having great year or coming off a great year. McCann had best combo of Avg and power that I saw.

Uggla is out of nowhere. More power, runs scored and OBP than Phillips. More power than anybody but Utley who is tied at 13 with him. This guy looks like a star in the making.
Who did you pick? Why, please I hope nobody picked cheaters like Bonds and Giambi, especially given the years they are having.

If I made my pick and made the starting lineup for the All-Star Game, then this would be my pick:
American League
C Joe Mauer, Minnesota - Leading the league in BA and hitting the ball like Ichiro with occasional SB, but drives in runs also.
1B Jim Thome, Chicago White Sox- A lost cause in Philadelphia, he rebounded in a big way, leading the American League in HR and top 10 in RBI, and also making Chicago a more formidable threat on offense than a year ago (his replacement in Philadelphia isn't that bad either).
2B Jose Lopez, Seattle - Richie Sexson and Adrian Beltre were suppose to carry the "big" offense for Seattle but Lopez came out of nowhere to lead all 2B in RBI and having a breakout season.
SS Miguel Tejada, Baltimore - Former MVP is once again having to carry the load for Baltimore and he's not dissapointing anyone with his stats.
3B Alex Rodriguez, New York Yankees - The reigning MVP hasn't lost his touch in another pressure-filled season in New York.
OF Vernon Wells, Toronto - A comeback year for him after a dismal season and leading Toronoto into playoff contention in a division fill with Yankees and Red Sox.
OF Carl Crawford, Tampa Bay - One of the most undderated player in baseball is on pace for his first 20-20, .300 season.
OF Alex Rios, Toronto - Breakout player of the year and finally putting a solid season that Toronto envision when he came up to the big leagues.
National League
C Michael Barrett, Chicago Cubs- Before the suspension, he was the only savior on offense for Chicago when Derrek Lee is injured and Aramis Ramirez is struggling.
1B Albert Pujols, St. Louis - The reigning MVP will try to prove that last season wasn't a fluke, as if he has to prove it season after season.
2B Chase Utley, Philadelpia - Despite a slump right now, Utley is on pace for a repeat performance in his first full season as the starting 2B.
SS Jose Reyes, New York Mets - Benefiting from the offense this season, he leads the league in run scored and SB and the leading vote-getter among his position.
3B David Wright, New York Mets - He's making New Yorkers trying to forget that other 3B from New York with his five-tool performance.
OF Alfonso Soriano, Washington - The best 2B in the league, if the team actually let him play there.
OF Carlos Beltran, New York Mets - New York is finally getting their money's worth of this kid in his second season with the team.
OF Carlos Lee, Milwaukee - Always putting big number but never getting the recognition for it, whether it's was with the White Sox or Brewers.
