He might make it but it would be tough for his positions. Although, he has been one of the few bright spots for the Reds so he has as good of a shot as anyone of being their lone representative.
Jeff Keppinger is absolutely raking these days for the Reds. I'd like to see him make the All-Star team. He deserves it, but he probably doesn't have the star power to make the trip to Yankee Stadium in July.

Keppinger's shot at making the All-Star team just got set back.
Keppinger plays two more innings before leaving with broken kneecap - MLB - ESPN

Ouch. Must have jinxed him.
About the time the Reds start to play half way decent ball the best player so far this season goes down. Volquez would have to be the NL Cy Young winner at this early point in the season. He and Votto are the only reasons to really tune in every night at this point. Win the first two games with Harang and Volquez and run out Arroyo (who they thought was hurt two starts ago) on short rest and Beslie for the next two......... Oh what a franchise. At least they've not batted out of order this series yet.

Volquez is not the early NL Cy Young winner. That would go to Webb.

im glad im not the only one who thought the NL cy young was already decided, 8-0 is INSANE. Webb would be the NY cy young winner there pvfan, i cant believe even your red and white glasses can shade that out.
and harang sucks this year.

I guess leading the NL in era in a hitters park while leading the nl in K's and being 6-1 isn't CY Young level. Really, please go look at the MLB pitchers stats right now. Volquez is better than Webb in nearly every category.

webb will win it without a total meltdown
harang has a pretty solid era but hes walked more guys, struck out less and gotten alot less run support than last year
