It looks like Tiger fans have been hitting the All Star ballot box. Ivan Rodriguez leads all catchers, which isn’t a huge surprise but Placido Polanco has made some gains on Robinson Cano. Probably the most surprising was Sean Casey, who’s in fifth place for first basemen. He’s well back of the lead but just 23,000 votes behind fourth place Travis Hafner. For all the details, be sure to check out the All Star Game Blog.
this is likely due to his continuing support from fans in Cinci. Since they get a vote too and probably don’t follow the AL so much they vote for who they like.
