2011 MLB All-Star Game Prediction

2010 ASG Result:
NL- 3
AL- 1

Starting Pitching Match-up:
NL: Roy Halladay, Phillies
AL: Jered Weaver, Angels

Prediction:
NL- 4
AL- 2

Analysis:
The AL is missing key pitchers in Lester, King Felix, Verlander,Price, Sabathia, and Mariano Rivera who all dropped out of the game or are injured; as well as the Yankees' A-Rod and Jeter. With the now weak AL pitching staff and less dynamic offense, the AL will struggle, and with the NL having pitchers like Tim Lincecum and Cliff Lee to picth after Halladay, the NL has the clear advantage. NL wins 4-2.
