Major League Baseball released updated National League voting Tuesday, and not one Diamondbacks player appears among the leaders at any position. The league lists the top five vote-getters at each infield position and catcher and lists the top 15 in the outfield.
Interestingly, only the Diamondbacks, San Diego Padres and the National League East-leading Washington Nationals are the only senior circuit squads that don't have any players among the leaders.
