Six Yankees will be headed to Arizona for the midsummer classic next week. Robinson Cano (3rd all-star game), Derek Jeter (12th), Alex Rodriguez (14th) and Curtis Granderson (2nd) were voted in as starters. Russell Martin (3rd) and Mariano Rivera (12th) also made the squad.
If you ask me, both CC Sabathia and David Robertson deserved to be there as well. Mark Teixeira, who probably also deserves to be there, might participate in the HR Derby.
