Yankees Did Not Have A Starter Voted Into All-Star Game

Brett Gardner and Alex Rodriguez were two players that could have been New York Yankees candidates to be voted in to start for the 2015 All-Star game, but it did not work out that way. 

On Sunday evening, Major League Baseball announced the American League All-Star roster and it did not include a member of the Pinstripes.
