Season 23 All-Star Coverage

This season's All-Star break is upon us, so let's see who made the teams!

In the American League, 40 year-old Stewart Mouton of Tampa Bay headlines the team, making his 10th All-Star team, this time as a closer! Charlotte SS Delino Santana is making his 9th appearance in the big game, continuing his success with his new team this season.  Columbus and Wichita led the way overall with 5 All-Stars each, while Helena had a respectable 4.  The roster consists of a lot of new blood, as 17 of the 30 players are 1st time All-Stars!

On the National League side, many of the old guard are missing who you see on the All-Star rosters just about every season; however, Oklahoma City's Matty Posada still managed to make the team for an incredible 13th time!  Fellow ace, Justin Jordan of Salem is making his 7th appearance.  Leading the way for most All-Stars is Richmond with a stellar total of 8!  Chicago, Louisville and Syracuse all managed to get 4 players on the team.  Despite the perceived changing of the guard, there's still only 9 first time All-Stars on the NL team.

Here are the complete rosters!
