I was over at Yahoo! Sports today when I came across this:

Say what you want about the Yankees' filthy-rich resources, but more All-Stars came out of their minor-league system than any other team's. Here are the best and worst franchises in terms of 2001 All-Stars produced. (International professional free agents were not counted. Newbie franchises Arizona and Tampa Bay, who had none of their picks in the game, were excluded from the worst list.
The Best
1. Yankees: 7 (Derek Jeter, Jorge Posada, Mariano Rivera, Andy Pettitte, Bernie Williams, Eric Milton and Christian Guzman)
2. Houston: 5 (Luis Gonzalez, Phil Nevin, Freddy Garcia, Lance Berkman, Billy Wagner).
3. Seattle, Montreal, Pittsburgh, Texas, Cleveland: tied with 4.
The Worst
1. Mets: 0
Cubs: 0
Cincinnati: 0

Of course the Yankees are going to be the best!!!
They have a manager that picked all of his players, which I think is unfair. I don't like the fact that managers get to pick who they want in the All-Star game. |

I agree. The Yankees are just way too good. Break up the team and let someone else win, I'm serious now.
