Season 19 All-Star Coverage

Leon Jackson - Senior Writer - Cobbfather Post Gazette

Season 19's All-Star Game is upon us, and it's time to see who has made this season's All-Star squads!  In the American League, the team is highlighted by hurlers James Haselman and Harry Mieses each making their 8th All-Star appearance. Yamid Montanez is making his 7th All-Star appearance this season, which automatically qualifies him for the Hall of Fame ballot.

In the NL, it's slugger Andres Candelaria is the leader in appearances on the squad this season making his 7th, which again, automatically qualifies him for the Hall of Fame ballot.

The teams with the most all-stars were Arizona and Vancouver in the AL with 5 each, and Little Rock in the NL with 5.   Without further adieu, here's the complete All-Star rosters for Season 19!
