Baseball Instruction/All Star Rules

Question
Shouldnt there be at least one or more player be chosen for the all star team from each team?

Answer
Elizah,

In my opinion, no.  In fact, I'm against the rule forcing a player from each team on the All Star team.  As a fan I want to see the best players and that rule at times prevents one of the best players from making the team.

This is my opinion only though - other people feel differently!
