The San Francisco Giants may not have enough runway to get a player out of phase one of All-Star Game voting.
outfielder Heliot Ramos appears to have any shot of getting out of phase one voting for the All-Star Game, which ends on Thursday.To reach the second phase of voting — which determines the starting lineup — a position player must be in the top two, or among the top six outfielders. That voting starts on Sunday.Ramos, a rookie who has given the Giants a boost in the wake of the loss of Jung Hoo Lee for the season, is in ninth place in voting after the latest results were released on Monday.
Ramos has 505,042 votes. To get into the top six he’s going to have to make up about 350,000 votes, asNick Castellanos is in sixth place with 857,186 votes. He is one of a half-dozen Phillies poised to advance to phase two voting.The rest of the Giants on the ballot will need a surge in voting in the next three days to advance to phase two. If none of the Giants advance out of phase one, their All-Stars will be selected out of a pool of reserves and pitchers.
First baseman LaMonte Wade Jr., who is currently on a rehab assignment at Triple-A Sacramento, is seventh in voting at a position dominated by Philadelphia’s Bryce Harper. Matt Chapman is eighth in voting at third base, with Philadelphia’s Alec Bohm leading the way with nearly two million votes. Patrick Bailey is ninth in voting at catcher, which is led by Milwaukee’s William Contreras. Thairo Estrada is 10th at second base, with Arizona’s Ketel Marte leading voting at that position.Matthew Postins is an award-winning sports journalist who covers the Texas Rangers, Philadelphia Phillies, Chicago Cubs, New York Mets and Houston Astros for Sports Illustrated/FanNation.
