Fan voting for the Major League Baseball All-Star Game begins Tuesday. Don’t expect the Rockies, who sit in the National League West basement, to generate much buzz.
First baseman C.J. Cron, who’s hitting .295 with a .906 OPS and ranks fifth in the majors with 14 home runs, is the top candidate to represent the Rockies at Dodger Stadium on July 19. At this juncture, he’s probably Colorado’s lone candidate.
, making him the first Rockies pitcher represented since Ubaldo Jimenez in 2010 in Anaheim. Marquez entered the all-star break last year with an 8-6 record and 3.36 ERA.thrown by former Broncos quarterback Peyton ManningBut Marquez has fallen on hard times. He enters Tuesday night’s game at San Francisco 1-5 with a 6.71 ERA.
Cron is not going to win the fans’ vote to be the starting first baseman for the National League. That honor will likely go to the Cardinals’ Paul Goldschmidt, who’s an early MVP candidate. And don’t forget that the Dodgers have Freddie Freeman and the Mets have Pete Alonso. But each team must be represented by at least one player and Cron has been Colorado’s most productive player.
