When I was a kid I was a fan of a particular baseball team. So when it came time to vote for the All-Star team, I would vote for all of my team's players in one league and vote for the worst potential All-Star team in the other league so "my" league would win.
In that spirit, here's this season's All-Worst All-Star teams from the ballot I picked up from Yankee Stadium the other day and their stats going into Friday.
Each team submits one representative for each position and three for the outfield before they even know who the regulars are going to be.
All of these players are on the All-Star ballot along with the Jeters and the A-Rods and the Wrights and Reyeses. Some of them are injured, or have been released or traded or sent to the minors, but you can vote for them anyway.
