Major League Baseball All Star Voting

I did extensive research, and it seems the following are the most deserving at each position:

AMERICAN LEAGUE
C Joe Mauer
1B Jim Thome
2B Jose Lopez
SS Miguel Tejada
3B Alex Rodriguez
OF Nick Swisher
OF Jermaine Dye
OF Vernon Wells

And some pitchers...
Jose Contreras
Johan Santana
Kenny Rogers
Roy Halladay
Francisco Liriano
Scott Kazmir
Jonathon Papelbon
Bobby Jenks
B.J. Ryan


NATIONAL LEAGUE:
C Michael Barrett
1B Albert Pujols
2B Dan Uggla
SS Bill Hall
3B David Wright
OF Alfonso Soriano
OF Carlos Lee
OF Lance Berkman

And some pitchers...
Brandon Webb
Pedro Martinez
Bronson Arroyo
Carlos Zambrano
Tom Glavine
Tom Gordon
Jason Isringhausen
Derrick Turnbow
Trevor Hoffman




Apologies to many folks such as Paul Konerko, Felipe Lopez, and Ichiro, but these position players truly appear like 16 worthy of starting.
I'll add some thoughts on pitchers soon...
