David Wright and Robinson Cano, home run derby captains of their respective leagues, have chosen their teams. Except, Cano has left one off. Apparently he could not decide on his last player, or perhaps he is waiting for an answer from said player, but he will announce the last selection tomorrow.
Here is a Tweet from Buster Olney with the participants:
NL HR Derby team: Wright, Carlos Gonzalez, Michael Cuddyer, Bryce Harper. AL team: Cano, Prince Fielder, Chris Davis, and TBA.

Even though the last player is undecided, someone from the AL has to be the favorite given those names. The three AL hitters’ total home runs on the season are 68 to the NL’s 52.
