Kirk Gibson comes to mind, too.

Preface: I am not sure about this ... its a long time ago.

Yes, Gibson never played in an All Star game. However, in 1988, I think he either was voted in, or there was talk about him being a replacement for an injured player.

Anyway, he made it clear that he was not going to go because he had plans to go home to Michigan.

Yes, you are correct.

Anyone know if my assloads of Tim Salmon rookie cards are worth a damn?

This is way too much effort.

Haha, I figured you might want to put too much effort into it. But just off the top of your head I'm sure you could come up with a couple. You don't need a Bill Jamesian analysis of all non all-star players in history in order to come up with a few names.

I was disapointed to see only Salmon, Karros & Gibson mentioned, although all good choices.

A couple other names to throw out:
Tim Wakefield, JD Drew, Todd Zeile, Kirk Rueter, Shannon Stewart, Placido Polanco, Mike Timlin, Pedro Astacio
