As a result of both Ricky Romero and Josh Beckett getting two votes each, we held a poll to settle the dispute and here were the results:
Which pitcher do you feel is a better fit for a 2011 AL East All-Star team?
- Ricky Romero (82%, 234 Votes)
- Josh Beckett (18%, 53 Votes)
Total Voters: 287
So, in addition to the pitchers above, here’s a review of the position players who make up the rest of the All-Division roster:
C – Matt Wieters
1B – Adrian Gonzalez
2B – Robinson Cano
SS – Derek Jeter
3B – Evan Longoria
OF – Carl Crawford
OF – Brett Gardner

DH – Manny Ramirez
Our squad will face off against the AL West and AL Central All-Division rosters on a poll on FanSided’s website Call to the Pen, where the winner will square off against the NL winner in a final upcoming poll, which we will update as soon as it comes available!
