I believe they did a GREAT job this year in selecting those deserving. While each team must have a representative...I feel Carlos Santana (Cleveland) deserved to make the squad. National League snub to me is Starling Marte, although the OFs selected are very deserving (and all had better numbers). Matt Moore and Jim Johnson also deserved to make it as well (specifically over Masterson).

Reds RF Jay Bruce should have made it...

Longoria should be there.

I also would've liked to seen Raul Ibanez make the team.
I doubt he's ever been and his 21HR and 49 RBI's aren't too shabby.
Would've been a nice nod to a veteran player on the way out.

Oh and Jason Bay too.
Only to make Mac angry! :-)

Bruce should have made it. And that's not just me being a Reds fan. Well... Maybe just a little.
