The week-ending Saturday 4/21 featured the 100th anniversary of Fenway Park in Boston, and also the opening of All-Star Voting (on Friday 4/20). Seems a little early to me, considering the season started less than a month ago, even taking into account the early start in Japan. I know the All-Star Game is essentially a popularity contest, but popularity among athletes has a tendency to rise and fall with their statistical performance, and I think you need a little more time than 3+ weeks to judge who deserves to be honored with a midsummer trip to Kansas City to represent their teams/leagues.
