Report: Webb to start All-Star Game

Brandon Webb will be the NL starter for the 2008 All-Star game, the New York Post reports. The 2006 Cy Young winner is tied for the major league lead with 12 wins, and he boasts a 3.43 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and 100 strikeouts.Some people will undoubtedly quibble with this choice, but Webb has to enter any discussion about the best pitchers in the majors.

After seemingly recovering from a rough patch of starts by defeating the Florida Marlins last Saturday, Brandon Webb struggled through six innings on Thursday afternoon. The right-hander allowed five runs on nine hits, walked two and struck out six.Because of the miracle at Chase Field, that saw the D'backs score six runs in the bottom of the ninth inning, Webb didn't factor into the decision. He pitched poorly enough to deserve the loss, and at one point looked completely disinterested in pitching.
