This Is The All-Star Game?

The 82nd MLB All-Star game is tonight from Chase Field in Arizona. Don't let the players on the field fool you, it is the All-Star game.

A ridiculous 84 players were named All-Stars this year because of injury replacements, starters pitching on Sunday, and of course Derek Jeter's "emotional and physical exhaustion" from his pursuit of 3,000 hits.

These guys were named All-Stars but won't play for one of the above reasons:

Alex Rodriguez, 3B, Yankees

Derek Jeter, SS, Yankees

Jose Reyes, SS, Mets

Placido Polanco, 3B, Phillies

Ryan Braun, OF, Brewers

Felix Hernandez, P, Mariners

Jon Lester, P, Red Sox

David Price, P, Rays

Mariano Rivera, P, Yankees

CC Sabathia, P, Yankees

James Shields, P, Rays

Justin Verlander, P, Tigers

Matt Cain, P, Giants

Cole Hamels, P, Phillies

Shane Victorino, OF, Phillies

Chipper Jones, 3B, Braves

Holy hell. That's 16 guys right there that were picked and won't play. You could make 3 teams with all the players they selected this year.

The following players are guys who will be active in tonight's "All-Star" game:

• Miguel Montero, C, D-Backs



• Andre Ethier, OF, Dodgers



• David Robertson, RP, Yankees



• Alexi Ogando, RP, Rangers



• Rickey Romero, P, Blue Jays



• Jordan Walden, RP, Angels



• Scott Rolen, 3B, Red (starting)



• Kevin Correia, P, Pirates
  

Gross. Enjoy the game!
