Perkins An All-Star, Dozier In Final Vote

Perkins has been the best closer in baseball in 2015. He is 27-27 in save opportunities, and he has been absolutely dominating. He has a 1.31 ERA and a 0.90 WHIP. He is very deserving of another All-Star nod.

Brian Dozier will be in the Final Five vote, but the Twins don't have a good history in the online voting. Lew Ford and Pat Neshek have been on the online vote.

Through 81 games, Dozier is hitting .260/.331/.511 (.842) with 26 doubles, three triples and 16 homers. From primarily the lead-off spot, he leads the league with 62 runs.

Jose Altuve was announced on Sunday as the starter for the AL in the fan vote. Jason Kipnis is the one second baseman who has a better WAR than Dozier in the American League. No other second baseman was named to the All-Star reserves. The Boston Red Sox are going to be represented by super-utility man Brock Holt.

Dozier is in the final five vote. You can #VoteDozier. The other four up for the final spot are Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts, OF Yoenis Cespedes, OF Brett Gardner, and 3B Mike Moustakus.
