Braun Looking Like an All Star Starter
Posted by Jeremy Fine
Follow JewishJournal.com on 
Mlb.com has come out with its first calculations of vote getters for the 2011 MLB All Star game. No surprise that Ryan Braun leads all outfielders. The MLB’s Home Run leader has 971,809. Right behind him are Cardinals Matt Holliday and Lance Berkman (no Berkman is not Jewish). To see more click HERE. The Mets’ Ike Davis is not in the top 5 for First basemen which is loaded with Albert Pujols, Joey Votto, and Prince Fielder. We hope to have updates on the AL soon which we hope will include Ian Kinsler, Kevin Youkilis, and possibly Danny Valencia and/or Sam Fuld.
