The 2013 MLB All-Star Game has its rosters set, excluding the two final players, which will get votes in later in the week. Here are the starters for both leagues as Citi Field gets ready to host MLB's All-Stars.
Over in the American League, there were some positions that were clear-cut. Here's what the final vote looked like as they look to snap the National League's All-Star Game winning streak as they have won in consecutive years.
Catcher- Joe Mauer
1st Base- Chris Davis
2nd Base- Robinson Cano
Shortstop- J.J. Hardy
3rd Base- Miguel Cabrera
Outfield- Mike Trout, Adam Jones, Jose Bautista
DH- David Ortiz
The team will look to power their way to victory as this lineup as a total of 169 home runs, including the major league leading Davis who has hit 33 as of Sunday, July 7. Cabrera also has the most RBI as he's totalled 88 so far in the season.
Over in the National League, they only have 118 home runs, but they have a lineup packed with veterans who have gotten the job done at the All-Star game before. They have a couple of guys who have been injured, but they will look to get as much production, without hindering their health for the remainder of the year.
Catcher- Yadier Molina
1st Base- Joey Votto
2nd Base- Brandon Phillips
Shortstop- Troy Tulowitzki
3rd Base- David Wright
Outfield- Carlos Beltran, Bryce Harper, Carlos Beltran
Tulowitzki hasn't played since June 2, while Harper recently returned to action after running into a wall in Dodger Stadium. Harper was trailing in the outfield ballot, but after Justin Upton struggled in the past two months of baseball, fans supported Harper instead.
