Rockies fans: Help make Carlos Gonzalez an All-Star



As most of you know, Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez is having a huge year. He's quickly making a name for himself throughout baseball as a 5-tool player thanks to his hitting, speed and outstanding defense. The voting for the 2010 All-Star Game is nearly complete and the rosters are almost full. There are 5 finalists for the National League and American League and its up to the fans to decide who will be the last two additions to the 2010 All-Star Game.

To find out more about the players that are left, follow this link http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/events/all_star/y2010/fv/ballot.html. While Joey Votto, the very talented first baseman of the Cincinnati Reds is the favorite, Carlos Gonzalez still has a chance to make his first All-Star Game.

National League Finalists:
1) Carlos Gonzalez   OF  Colorado Rockies
2) Heath Bell   RP  San DIego Padres
3) Joey Votto   1B  Cincinnati Reds
4) Ryan Zimmerman   3B  Washington Nationals
5) Billy Wagner   RP  Atlanta Braves

One thing to consider before voting -- especially if you're not planning to vote for Carlos Gonzalez -- CarGo has been hitting out of the leadoff spot for the Rockies for most of the season. Imagine what his RBIs would be had he been hitting 3rd or cleanup.
