MLB All-Star Game Shocker: Why Top Stars George Springer, Juan Soto, and Randy Arozarena Were Shockingly Overlooked

SP Framber Valdez, Houston Astros
Last year, a relatively rocky first half cost Valdez the chance at his third consecutive trip to the All-Star Game (though he rallied to receive down-ballot AL Cy Young votes), but there’s no excuse for his exclusion this time around. For as marvelous as Hunter Brown has been, Valdez remains the requisite rock atop the Astros rotation, which has proven especially valuable in the wake of all the injuries endured by other members of the pitching staff. Valdez is putting himself in excellent position to be the top starting pitcher on the free-agent market this winter.
