Dodgers News: Justin Turner Named National League Final Vote Candidate For 2017 All-Star Game

The Los Angeles Dodgers Cody Bellinger, Kenley Jansen, Clayton Kershaw and Corey Seager named to the National League roster for the 2017 All-Star Game, but noticeably absent were Justin Turner and Alex Wood.

It’s plausible Wood reaches the Midsummer Classic as a replacement for a pitcher who’s unavailable or injured. He may not need to look any further than Kershaw, who is scheduled to pitch in the Dodgers’ final game of the first half on Sunday, July 9.

Meanwhile, Turner is among a group of five for the Final Vote. The All-Star selection would be the first of Turner’s career.
