Honestly?

It should be

Rizzo
Bryant
Arrieta
Hammel
Fowler
Zobrist

Those are for sure.

Rondon and Lester are maybes.

They'll get 4
Rizzo
Bryant
Arrieta
Zobrist

Maybe they get a 5th via the last man deal.

You're just ignoring the voting?

Okay. Fowler is almost a lock.

He is one of the top in MLB in OPS.

If he doesn't get in on the vote, in which he is second among all NL outfielders, he will get in via manager selection.

That reads pretty racial.

Bryant
Zobrist
Arrieta
Rizzo
Fowler

Those should make it.

Russell
Hammel
Lester

Are all possible, but not likely just because of numbers and every team needing to be represented.

The whole Cubs infield is leading in votes at their position and Fowler has the most votes in the OF as he has now past Harper

This shows you the stupidity of fan voting.

Maybe another pitcher...

Russell has been the best defensive SS in the NL...so maybe...he has only had a few moments at the plate.

Rizzo started real slow...so I'd say no to Rizzo.

I heard that Rizzo is the top leading vote getter of all National League.

Rizzo is up there with league leader in OPS and RBI and I assume among 1B is leading or close to in many others.

Aditionally, besides his 2 week slump he has done very well. He had an OPS of 1.100 early in the season. And is OPS is very healthy still.

Reviewing the 1B's of the NL, Rizzo is the best of the bunch...not one is hitting over .300.

Guess he deserves it as much as any.

We got fucked out of catcher and right. Soler was iffy in left, so I can live with that.

Usually it takes at least making a World Series to get that many guys on the roster.

Cubs keep making history.

Congratulations to all Cubs All Stars.
