AAA All-Star Game Thread

The Triple A All-Star Game is tonight in Leigh Valley, with Bubba Bell and Robert Manuel representing the Pawtucket Red Sox.

 The game is on MLB Network or MILB.TV. I wanted to make this thread so anyone watching could comment on the game. Last year the International League won with Clay Buchholz and Fernando Cabrera representing Pawtucket.

 I was curious as how Ryan Kalish didn't make this team, as I know a lot of you do as well, so discuss that here as well.

Why would Kalish make it?

Well he has more translatable talent in his right pinky than Bubba Bell does. Bubba Bell is a fan favorite but at 28 isn’t really a prospect worth mentioning at this point.

Though I don’t think Kalish has been in AAA long enough to merit a AAA All-Star game.

Oh, don't get me wrong I'm not arguing that Kalish isn't a good player

He just didn’t do enough to make anyone think he should make the all star team

Indeed

He just got there about a month ago (maybe a little more), then missed some time with injury to boot.
