Voting for the 2018 MLB All-Star Game will open Friday, when fans will get their chance to cast a ballot or multiple ballots for the players they want to see in the July 17 Midsummer Classic in Washington.
The ballots are created before the season, so there are the occasional hiccups. When it comes to the Texas Rangers, infielder Jurickson Profar appears on the ballot as an outfielder as club officials speculated that he might wind up there.
The fan vote isn't perfect, and the players and managers always snub a deserving player.
Oftentimes it's a popularity test.
