How does a sub-.500 team have 4 All Stars?

There is no I in team. 

Soto does not deserve to be there this year but making it on prior performance and because he is one of the young stars they want to push. Trea and Max are both deserving.  Schwarber made it based on all those HRs in June.

MLB didn't waste much time screwing this event up.  Mancini hits one way after the buzzer that they count, wins by 1.  Gallo hits one right at the buzzer that they don't count, loses by 1.  Terrible.

Juan Soto took a time out at the HR Derby and Max Scherzer, Kyle Schwarber, and Trea Turner all ran out to give him some gatoraid and a towel.

I'm watching the statcast broadcast on ESPN2 and they are RIPPING Nats hitting coach Kevin Long for his BP pitching.

That wasn't a joke - Scherzer went out there to coach him.
