Ryan Zimmerman is starting to get some love from All-Star voters.
The Nationals third baseman jumped up two spots in this week’s ballot and is now in second place with 482,059 votes. He still lags well behind the Mets’ David Wright, who leads all NL third basemen with 685,972 votes, but he did leapfrog both Milwaukee’s Bill Hall and Atlanta’s Chipper Jones in the last week.
