Who should be the AL starting Second Baseman

[soxfan1468927]

6 to 2 for Dozier doesn't exactly blow me away either.

I like Dozier. Just can't see how anyone could justify voting for him to start the AS Game.

Nope it doesn't. Just pointing out that stolen bases doesn't really factor into this equation for me. Overall baseru

He just over took dozier by 1 double lol.

Even with all of doziers solo homers he's still driving in more and scoring more by getting on base considerably less. Why? Because he gets extra base hits like crazy and is a steller base runner taking their extra bag.

Kipnis has taken the extra base 53% of the time compared to 42% for Dozier.

I voted for Infante because it's not merit based. If starting an all star game were merit based...Kipnis would deserve it.

No love for Micah Johnson?

Still a better choice than Omar Infante.

How is it not Kipnis?

Everyone in Kansas City spends their day voting for Infante, that's how.

Dozier.

Dozier's a very underrated player, but Kipnis is putting up elite 1B numbers at a premium position.

And before we get into the whole "he only has 5 home runs!!!11!" argument, he's leading the AL in doubles and is batting .354/.431/.524. The average 2B is batting .257/.316/.376. The average 1B is batting .262/.341/.457.
