The Plan For An All-Royals All-Star Lineup Has Gone To Hell

Barring a miracle, the AL All-Star lineup won’t end up as eight Kansas City Royals and Mike Trout. The dream is over.

The latest MLB update shows Royals falling into second place at third base and designated hitter. Voters also widened the gap between Miguel Cabrera and Eric Hosmer:

Dammit.

Omar Infante, however, still has a tenuous lead for second base in front of Jose Altuve. If we can’t do an all-Royals lineup, we can at least do one with Omar Infante, who has no home runs and a .243 on-base percentage. Keep voting.
