Rookie sensation Stephen Strasburg left off all-star team
Strasburg's 100 mph fastball has captivated fans around baseball since the Washington Nationals called the right-hander up June 8, but NL manager Charlie Manuel would like to see 21-year-old settle into his role as an ace before making the Midsummer Classic.
"He got quite a bit of consideration," Philadelphia's Manuel told TBS during the selection show. "He is going be an All-Star for a long time. What does he have, five starts? I just felt there are other guys who have started 18 to 20 games. I just felt leave him alone and let him get used to the major league level." |

Too soon.
He will be on the next 10.

He doesn't need/deserve all-star status yet. If he's not 6-31 by this time next year, maybe he'll go then.

Other people with a complete half season more deserving to go right now. |

He makes the NL a better team. And the AS Game does count.

Could he possibly make the NL team better? sure
Does he "deserve" to be there? IMO, no If he had been up all year then I might have a different opinion.
