Question
For a team that is not going to have an All-Star team, i know that some players are able to join into another All-Star team, but are two different players allowed to go to two different teams?

For example I would go to a team called Rock Hill, but one of my teammates would go to Ironton.

Answer
Hi Caleb,

all depends on your baseball association rules.  If your association does not have enough players OR they want to balance out the teams, its quite possible to see your team split up.  

In our league, all-star team could only be formed within the same region.  If more than one all-star team is created, its the leagues decision as to where the players go - most cases its to a team close to home.  However, it depends on the ultimate goal - to win at any price OR to play baseball.

Best of luck in your season,
