Trout missing All Star Game-No other Angels starter is an All Star


Recommended Posts

If I were to pick a replacement from the current lot, it would have to be Simmons. If I had to go one deeper, Maldonado, but I don't know where he stands among catchers, just that he has been the best we have had since Bengie Molina. Nobody else among position players has shown enough to go to Miami - not for the All Star Game, anyway.

Norris would be an interesting choice, but pitchers are a manager's selection.

I was hoping for Trout to mash at the Home Run Derby but oh well.

Victor and Gubicza were just talking about this during this past Saturday or Sunday's broadcast. They said that one of them had asked Trout about the HR Derby and Trout said that the wasn't interested. Didn't give any reason other than to say that it just wasn't something he wanted to participate in.

There's still a chance Trout can get voted in and be the lone representative.

Maldonado is currently ranked 2nd in WAR among catchers in the AL. 

Simmons has tough competition in Correa, Lindor, Segura and Boegarts. 

J.C. Ramirez would be an incredible story. I hope he's able to keep his pace rather than sending a default bullpen option.

Well what about Albert.....oh wait, I don't want it to ruin his swing.
