4. The All-Star Ballot Released
So the 2014 All-Star ballot has been released for voting. Will the Mariners send more than one representative this season?
At this juncture Felix is the only one worthy of the nod. Cano may find his way in on name-recognition, but otherwise, it could be another quiet year for the Mariners at the Midsummer Classic, hosted in the Twin Cities at Target Field.
But on that note, don’t hesitate to vote! The season is still young, and the All-Star break months away. Still plenty of time for this team to right the ship, and plenty of time for the struggling individual players to make some noise this season.
