Worst All-Stars Of Every MLB Team

Every MLB team sends a player to the mid-summer classic. But sometimes it's not deserved. These are the worst All-Stars for every team in MLB history.
Atlanta Braves- Russ Ortiz (2003)

Ortiz had a couple good seasons. But his win total of 21 wins was more about the team's offense than Ortiz. He led the National League in walks.
Miami Marlins- Henderson Alvarez (2014)

Alvarez had a great start of his career. But the reason he's on this list? Well he was out of the league by age 25 due to injuries.
New York Mets- Bobby Jones (1997)

The reason Bobby Jones made the all-star game? Well, every team gets one. A half-season good performance gave him a spot on the team.
Philadelphia Phillies- Domonic Brown (2013)

Lightning in a bottle is the best way to describe what happened her. He was a top prospect that burst onto the scene. And then he fizzled out quickly.
Washington Nationals/Expos- Matt Capps (2010)

Capps was the lone National All-Star in 2010. He was their closer. But batters were also hitting .300 against him.
Chicago Cubs- Bryan LaHair (2012)

What a weird story. He was a career minor leaguer and caught fire, batting .390 in April that season. By the second half of the season? He lost his job.
Cincinnati Reds- Bronson Arroyo (2006)

Arroyo was a good starter. But he was not "All-Star" caliber. He was 9-6 with a 2.96 ERA at the break.
Milwaukee Brewers-Derrick Turnbow (2006)

His All-Star selection was around the same time his career was going downhill. He made the team with a 4.74 ERA.
Pittsburgh Pirates- Mike Williams (2003)

Someone had to make it for the Pirates. He had a 6.29 ERA but the Pirates had to send one player. Well, he had 25 saves so he got the nod.
St. Louis Cardinals- Edward Mujica (2013)

He made the All-Star team as the closer of the Cardinals. By the end of the year? Well he had already lost his job.
Arizona Diamondbacks- Junior Spivey (2002)

In just his 2nd season he made the All-Star game batting .345. however he never played over 107 games in a season again.
Colorado Rockies- Shawn Chacon (2003)

Sure he was 11-4 and that got him a All-Star nod. But he had a 4.27 ERA.
Los Angeles Dodgers- Mike Sharperson (1992)

It was a down year for the Dodgers. So somehow, a 30 year old backup who had just 48 starts at the break made the team.
San Diego Padres- Everth Cabrera (2013)

There was one reason he made the All-Star game. And that was his speed. He led the NL in steals the year prior to being selected an All-Star.
San Francisco Giants- Shawn Estes (1997)

This was an absolute career year for Shawn Estes. He never won more than 11 games after his lone All-Star year.
Baltimore Orioles- Ty Wigginton (2010)

The Orioles lost 96 games that season. But he at least had 14 HRs at the All-Star break earning him the nod.
Boston Red Sox- Tim Wakefield (2009)

The 42 year old made his first and only All-Star game. Somehow, he made it with a 4.30 ERA.
New York Yankees- Mike Stanton (2001)

The relief pitcher Stanton made the 2001 AL All-Star team. He was a middle reliever which is rare to earn a nod.
Tampa Bay Rays- Lance Carter (2003)

The Rays were in last place but needed a representative. Their closer Lance Carter got the nod despite a 4.33 ERA.
Toronto Blue Jays- Steve Delabar (2013)

He was a journeyman reliever. But he had a dominant first half and earned his first and only all-star berth.
Chicago White Sox- Scott Podsednik (2005)

Somehow, he made it VIA fan vote. He had 0 HRs at the time and an average batting average.
Cleveland Guardians- Chris Perez (2011)

He was a decent closer. But a 3.45 ERA for a closer wasn't dominant enough to justify being a two time All-Star.
Detroit Tigers- Brandon Inge (2009)

Inge won the final van vote in 2009. And made it over players with higher production like Chone Figgins and Ian Kinsler.
Kansas City Royals- Mark Redman (2006)

Redman's 2006 All-Star game selection was infamous. He had a 5.27 ERA and nearly as man walks as strikeouts.
Minnesota Twins- Joe Mays (2001)

Mays had a breakout first half in 2001. But this was his lone big season.
Houston Astros- John Hudek (1994)

A rookie closer made the All-Star team. And this was with a season with a 4+ ERA.
Los Angeles Angels- Jason Dickson (1997)

Dickson was a rookie pitcher and made the 1997 All-Star Team. He was 8-4 and plateaued in his career after.
Oakland Athletics- Ryan Cook (2012)

Cook was a middle reliver who happened to the only All-Star on a very good Athletics team. They won 94 games and somehow he got the All-Star nod.
Seattle Mariners- Daniel Vogelbach (2019)

Every team gets one player. And somehow the Seattle Mariners got Daniel Voghelback to the all-star game. He was average at best but did have some pop.
Texas Rangers- Roger Pavlick (1996)

Somehow a 5.19 ERA at the All-Star break still led him to get to go to the All-Star game.
