You can tell me the voting system for the All-Star Game is messed up. You can point to some glaring snubs that have many fans outraged. But for one moment, can we just appreciate Gleyber Torres’ inclusion on the American League All-Star Team? Yes, Torres is hurt. No, he probably won’t play in the game itself. But we should all take a moment to recognize the first of possibly many All-Star Games for the Yankees blooming star second baseman.
I remember the day that Torres took his first at-bat as a member of the team’s twenty-five man roster.
