MLB All-Star Game 2016: 5 biggest NL snubs

The rosters for the 2016 NL All-Stars were announced, and they were missing a few names

The MLB announced the All-Star game rosters, and with that comes the need to call out who was snubbed. It happens every year. When you tie in fan voting, with managerial bias, and the fact that every team needs one representative it becomes very hard to field the perfect roster.

Undeserving players sneak in on name value. That team that was 20-games under .500 had to get their average reliever in their to meet the rules. It is understandable, and that is what makes the process of identifying the snubs worthwhile.

These players deserved the credit of being called an All-Star. They put in a half-season of work that was better than the large majority of the league. The least we can do is name them to the team of snubs. They may even get their chance with the final vote.

This year, the National League seemed to do a pretty good job. There weren’t any glaring omissions when you consider the rules in which these players are selected. However, it is hard to say that these five players do not deserve some form of recognition for their first half.

With that said, here are the five biggest snubs from the National League All-Star roster.
