Phillies ace Zack Wheeler rips 'BS' All-Star snub due to Sunday start rule

Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Zack Wheeler publicly called his All-Star omission "BS," blaming a rule that makes pitchers who start on the Sunday before the game ineligible to appear in Tuesday's event. Wheeler, one of baseball's elite starters this season, said: "I feel like I've earned it." He is lined up to pitch on the Sunday, making him automatically ineligible.
