Zack Wheeler will have the last word. The Phillies ace, angered after being snubbed for a deserved All-Star Game selection in his home ballpark, declined MLB’s last-minute invitation to the Midsummer Classic, saying he felt “disrespected” and didn’t want to be treated like a “fifth option. ” “They disrespected me, so I’m not going to participate,” Wheeler told reporters Saturday, according to The Athletic.
