Vladimir Guerrero Jr. leads the way in many statistical categories in baseball, so it’s no surprise the Blue Jays slugger is at the front of the pack when it comes to all-star voting, too. The 22-year-old Guerrero has amassed an MLB-best 857,956 votes in early balloting, the league announced Monday. Atlanta’s Ronald Acuna Jr. was second at 834,287, followed by injured Angels star Mike Trout (706,503) and Fernando Tatis Jr. (701,251). Blue Jay Marcus Semien is leading among AL second basemen with 34 per cent of votes at that position. The Astros’ Jose Altuve is next among second basemen at 20 per cent, followed by the Yankees’ D.J.
