MLB All-Star Voting 2013: Leaders, Standings and Final Results

Matt FitzgeraldJun 1, 2018

The 2013 MLB All-Star roster was revealed on Saturday night, and the Midsummer Classic in New York's Citi Field promises to be yet another tremendous showcase of premier professional baseball talent.

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Chris Davis leads all of baseball with 33 home runs and has already driven in 85 runs. Thus, it's no surprise that he's the leading vote-getter overall.

Leading in popularity for the National League is Yadier Molina. The St. Louis Cardinals catcher has been great at the plate and behind it defensively this season. He is batting a sensational .346.

Prediction for last AL Player In: Tanner Scheppers, P, Texas Rangers

Among the other four relief pitcher candidates to make it in with the last-minute fan vote, Scheppers has the lowest ERA at 1.45. Although he's outmatched in WHIP by some of his peers, he still is deserving of this distinction.

The Rangers have been known for their struggles with pitching, but this young righty is a welcome change in that regard.

Despite the No. 22 ranking in quality starts, Texas still ranks sixth in team ERA. A lot of the credit is due to the bullpen, and Scheppers is the marquee setup man.

In 39 appearances in 2012, the now-26-year-old was shelled in his maiden full MLB campaign and saw his ERA balloon to 4.45.

Scheppers has held the lead 17 times on the bump this season and has a 5-1 record to go along with an impressive .190 opponent's batting average. His marked improvement should be rewarded, and fans should elect him to the American League roster.

Prediction for last NL Player In: Yasiel Puig, OF, Los Angeles Dodgers

The big state of California should have a lot of national sway, and Puig's electrifying play thus far in his young career speaks for itself.

Puig is simply a phenom, with power to both sides of the field and a cannon for an arm.

In just 31 games, the Dodgers' sensation is batting .420 with eight home runs and 19 RBI. He's turned many heads—even those who aren't diehard baseball fanatics.

No other player in recent memory has burst onto the scene quite in the fashion that Puig has. It's a small sample size, but by reaching the 50-hit milestone in his first 30 games, the prodigy joined prestigious company, per ESPN Stats & Info:

There are other respectable players, such as Los Angeles Dodgers star Adrian Gonzalez, who are eligible for the final vote. However, it will be tough for anyone to overcome Puig's dazzling start and beat him out for the chance to play at Citi Field on July 16.
