The Giants' surge the last six weeks got them into the MLB playoff race, but it didn't lead to much love when All-Stars were announced on Sunday.
The Giants hoped to get a starting pitcher onto the roster, but Alex Cobb went on the IL late in the first half and Logan Webb was left off despite ranking second in the NL in innings pitched. Webb had a rough final start before selections were made, which dropped him to 13th in the league in ERA.
The biggest snub on the position player side was Thairo Estrada, who ranks 10th overall in the NL in fWAR and is tied with NL starter Luis Arraez among second basemen. Estrada looked like an easy choice the first couple months of the season, but he has been in a slump the last couple of weeks, and the backup spot at second base went to Atlanta's Ozzie Albies, who hit his 20th homer Sunday.
