Two Milwaukee Brewers will be in the starting lineup at the All Star Game while two more will be in reserve.
Aramis Ramirez and Carlos Gomez got the start by winning the fan vote. Lucroy and Frankie Rodriguez were voted in by the players.
It is good to see Ramirez and Gomez get rewarded for their efforts by the fans. In a small market like Milwaukee many times that goes overlooked.
It is sad that it is a popularity vote as even the ESPN Announcers agreed that Jonathan Lucroy should have been the starting Catcher.
Lucroy stats/standing at Catcher against the MLB
1st in Batting Avg .329 Molina 3rd .292
1st in OBP .397 Molina 5th .342
1st in Slugging .516 Molina 7th .414
1st in Runs 42 Molina 7th 30
1st in Hits 104 Molina 2nd 86
2nd in RBIs 42 Molina 15th 30
Between the two in fielding they are neck and neck. Lucroy has 3 errors and Molina 2, Lucroy has thrown out more baserunners.
