The All-Star break is here. Oh boy. It's only for the best players as the non-All-Stars are home with their families. For four days! So who is really winning here? Is the game even important?
@Pirates Paul Skenes is starting the All-Star game for the National League and that's right. Elly de la Cruz will play in the All-Star game due to the injury to @Dodgers Mookie Betts. @redsox Rafael Devers is passing on the All-Star game but he did not pass up to hit a big home run on Sunday to help the Red Sox to a 5-4 win.
The MLB Draft was held Sunday and the first 5 players are college players. That's very different than it used to be.
Our midseason awards and review of our pre-season predictions will be coming on Thursday.
