Biggest snubs of the day? In the NL, it's Jose Reyes of the Mets. A shortstop who is among the best base runners in the game and who hits .294 AVG/.355 OBP/.482 SLG while playing half his games in Shea deserves a nod. Hurdle was forced to pick a Washington National, and that's why Cristian Guzman took Reyes' rightful spot. In the AL, it's Brian Roberts of the Orioles. He's a slick-fielding middle infielder who gets on base and is on target for 60 doubles this season. That's an All-Star. In fact, Roberts and Ian Kinsler, who made the AL squad as a reserve, both deserved to start at second ahead of Dustin Pedroia.

I agree Dayn Perry.. I wholeheartedly agree...

No, Roberts didn't even come close to winning that final vote to get on the All Star team. It's not been a good week for the O's, that's for sure! And now we're playing the Red Sox.. Hope we can step it up!
