What I said was very simple. If two players have similiar numbers, it should go to the player on the better team. WHY you may ask? For one, they are building their stats in competitive situations, this may not always be the case with bad teams. 2. Winning games is still why they play the game, not stats so it would make sense that the goal is to win the All Star Game, players on winning teams KNOW how to win.
The game SHOULD be about what the fans want, and I doubt even if Kansas City fans would rather see Mark Redman over Francisco Liriano.
You are twisting what I am saying into what you want me to have said so you have an agument. Please re-read paragraph 2 if you are still confused as to what I am saying. Thanks!

I've hardly posted here so I don't see how I'm looking for an argument. I'd suggest relaxing just a little bit, as I don't recall attacking you in any way, shape, or form. If the All-Star game was done correctly, then yes, the players on the better team should get the closer spots. But because the MLB has the crazy rule that every team deserves a representative, there's no reason why anyone should be discounted because they are on a bad team.
