Felix, at best, 83rd best player in MLB?

By Tangotiger

From July 12, 2009 to July 11, 2010, Felix Hernandez: 35 starts, 17-7, 2.68 ERA, 252 IP, 227 K, 77 BB.

And yet, of the 82 (!) all-stars named, none of them are Felix. If you name enough all-stars to fill four teams, why not actually HAVE four teams? How about a double-header of 7 innings each?
