With Mike Napoli, Adrian Beltre and Josh Hamilton already named starters on the American League All-Star roster for the 83rd Mid-Summer Classic in Kansas City, the next question to be asked was how many reserves would Ron Washington get from his Rangers onto the All-Star team?
The answer? Four.
Pitchers Matt Harrison and Joe Nathan will have a reserved spot in the All-Star bullpen and the pair of Elvis Andrus and Ian Kinsler will get their share of work in the infield as well. That makes a grand total of 7 all-stars for the AL West leading Texas Rangers.
Here's the full list of pitchers and reserves for both league's all-star teams as we await the All-Star Game on July 10.
