The IBWAA MLB All-Stars!

***

The Internet Baseball Writers Association of America (IBWAA) conducted its third annual All-Star election. All IBWAA members were eligible to cast a ballot.


Each roster includes 20 position players with at least three catchers, two players at each infield position, five outfielders, and one designated hitter. Each roster also includes 12 pitchers with a minimum of six starters and two relievers. This year, the AL has an additional position player because Shohei Ohtani was elected as both a pitcher and a designated hitter.

Scattering the Ashes.jpeg

"Scattering The Ashes has all the feels. Paul Russell Semendinger's debut novel taps into every emotion. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll reexamine those relationships that give your life meaning." — Don Burke, writer at The New York Post

The Least Among Them.png

"This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball’s power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond."

—Jonathan Eig, New York Times best-selling author of Luckiest Man, Opening Day, and Ali: A Life

From Compton to the Bronx.jpg

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
