Tentatively, I like Stanton and Realmuto to be selected as reserves in the players' ballot, plus Ozuna earning the start. Does McCutchen have a chance after missing out last year? Again, NL outfield is so shallow. Also, I think reserve AL 1B is a big debate, with LoMo, Smoak, Yonder Alonso, and Miguel Cabrera (probably not Cabrera) as possibilities. And whoever ends up getting that could have a ripple effect, because whoever misses out might need to be selected as that team's representative, and Manfred is only going to be able to select one position player for the AL. Hopefully Corey Dickerson makes it as a DH to cover the Rays, although Edwin Encarnacion could make it instead. Ideally it would be Dickerson as DH and Smoak as 1B, but things don't have to work out so nicely. If Encarnacion makes it, things could get ugly. --- I was the Guru in 2015 but a fool in 2017.
