Johnny Cueto, who pitches Tuesday night against the Washington Nationals and is scheduled to start on Sunday, can be voted to the last spot by fan vote.

Cueto will be competing with Clayton Kershaw of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Jeurys Familia of the New York Mets, Carlos Martinez of the St. Louis Cardinal and Troy Tulowitzki of the Colorado Rockies.  All except Tulowitzki are pitchers.
