After throwing another gem on Saturday afternoon in a win against the Miami Marlins, Seattle Mariners' pitcher Logan Gilbert isn't too concerned with being chosen for his first All-Star Game.
social media team put the full-court press on to remind people that pitcher Logan Gilbert should be an All-Star this season.The fans don't vote for the All-Star Game pitchers, but it's a nice message to other players and American League manager Bruce Bochy to not forget the stud right-hander,Gilbert is now 5-4 this season and owns a 2.71 ERA. If he were to be selected to the team, it would be his first All-Star Game selection.
However, after the game on Saturday, Gilbert told reporters that he wasn't focused on a potential All-Star Game spot."You try not to think about it, honestly ... It'd be great if it happens, but that's not the focus. The way that we're playing right now is really exciting. The lead we have in the AL West, that's always going to take precedence.""You try not to think about it, honestly ... It'd be great if it happens, but that's not the focus.
Gilbert's next outing will come back at T-Mobile Park when the Mariners take on the Minnesota Twins next weekend.
