Race For AL's Third OF Spot Tight 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:44 pm

Adam Jones and Mike Trout are well ahead in the American League All-Star voting, meaning the two outfielders are all but assured of a spot on the team.


The race for the third and final starting spot, however, is tight.


Outfield Votes
Adam Jones, Orioles 3,571,693
Mike Trout, Angels 3,548,195
Nick Markakis, Orioles 1,915,860
Jose Bautista, Blue Jays 1,867,367
Torii Hunter, Tigers 1,851,657


Markakis, Bautista and Hunter all have a legitimate shot at starting.


Voting ends on July 4th.
