Seeing as we are in the midst of the All-Star Break and the All-Star Game is in fact tonight, it seemed only fitting to write up a special edition piece this week for the Stock Watch. We are going to take a look strictly at players who were selected as All-Stars....

Changes are coming in the desert, as the Diamondbacks look ready to move things around in their bullpen. The Reds, meanwhile, look like they're going back to how things were before. The A's got their closer back from the injured list, but is he still going...
