Jayson Stark from ESPN wrote and article about the NL finally having the star power in MLB.

On the second Tuesday of July, the stars will sparkle in the San Diego sky. But enough about astronomy. It's the stars sparkling below, on the glimmering grass of Petco Park, that we're here to talk about.

If the All-Star Game is a time to celebrate star power, let's just come out and say it. You know where you find the brightest stars and the most star-studded franchises in baseball at the moment?

In the National League, ladies and gentlemen. The NL has finally won baseball's star wars.

Think about it. All of a sudden, it's the NL that's the league of marquee franchises and must-see rivalries. It's the league of fire-breathing aces. It's the league of Buster Posey and Bryce Harper, Kris Bryant and Andrew McCutchen, Clayton Kershaw and Madison Bumgarner.


Stark also said Buster is 6th in jersey sales, which is dang impressive considering the top five play in Boston, Los Angeles, and Chicago.

I know our boy is already a three-time champ, rookie of the year, batting champ, and MVP. Yet I still can't help but smile when I see more praise.
