The Astros’ Jose Altuve voted into All-Star game
By Eric Huysman

Which Other Astros Could Make the Team?
The Astros ace should not only make the All-Star team, he should be the starting pitcher for the team. The lefty has not been scored upon in his last 17 innings. The late-blooming star had a rough 2013, but has come back to become one of the top pitchers in baseball. The two main pitchers in line for the All-Star start is Keuchel and Chris Sale. It’s up to Ned Yost to who gets the start. Chris Archer and Sonny Gray are also in line to get the start for the AL.
Stats from FanGraphs: 10-3/ 2.03 ERA/ 102 strikeouts in 124.1 innings

The reliever is one of the best in baseball, despite the bad inning today versus the Red Sox. He is the true definition of a fireman, with his ability to come into a critical situations and limit the damage.
Stats from FanGraphs: 4-1/ .93 ERA/ 39 strikeouts in 38.2 innings.
Carlos Correa
The young shortstop could end up on the Final Vote for the last slot on the American League, because he is that good. You can read more of my thoughts here Carlos Correa Should be on the 2015 All-Star Team.
Stats from FanGraphs: .315/ 7 HR/ 19 RBI/ 5 SB.
Thank you fans for voting for Jose Altuve, we didn’t want him to fall short this year!
