I would love to see only Jason Bay on that all-star team and 3 or 4 Yankees

Jeter is a great guy, but he's not the best Short Stop in the AL.

Who is, Will?

Its hard to argue anyone is better

Todd Jones in The Sporting News ranked Jeter as his #1 player in the game, for being clutch and his clean background. I believe this is the same Jones who hit Jeter a few times many years ago and got Derek pissed off. One of very few times I can remember Derek getting mad at another player.

Pretty good job overall by the fans on the voting. Only issues I can see are....Cano should be over Pedroia. Salty should be lower on the catcher list. Hamilton should be lower on the OF list. Other than that really no complaints.

Good to see Tex is finally at the top. Johnny Damon should be higher up the list IMO. He shouldn't be behind Griffey.

Morneau should be ahead of Youkilis
