2013 MLB:At the Halfway Mark: All Star Rosters+Playoff Projections
Saturday, June 29, 2013
Here are the updated projections:
AL East
Boston (91)
AL Central
Detroit (92)
AL West
Texas (91)
WC
Oakland (89)
NYY (85)
NL East
Atlanta (91)
NL Central
St Louis (92)
NL West
Arizona (84)
WC
Pittsburgh (91)
Cincinnati (89)
Here's my final selection for All Star Game Rosters.
Each league has 34 players. There have to be at least 5 starters/3 relievers for each league. Each league had 13 active pitchers last year, so I'll make that my target; I still wouldn't ever have an all star roster with more than 3 relievers although you'll see double that in the actual game. Both leagues use a DH. Every team needs to be represented.
The WAR is B-Ref+Davenport.
