The Major League All-Star game is one of the prominent traditions in the game of baseball as fans salivate over observing the best in the game take the field together.Although the fans decide who will be on the flight to San Diego, California and at least one member from every club will be included, it’s fascinating to speculate as to who from the 2016 New York Yankees will be included.
