I noticed in today's paper that in some cases the players chose some pitchers
with the manager picking some as well.
Is this new for this year?

I agree it is the first time I've ever heard of this happening too.

BOSTON, MA – The Boston Red Sox had six players selected to play for the American League in the 2010 Major League Baseball All-Star Game, which will take place on Tuesday, July 13 at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, CA. Third baseman Adrian Beltre, right-handed pitcher Clay Buchholz, left-handed pitcher Jon Lester, catcher Victor Martinez, second baseman Dustin Pedroia and designated hitter David Ortiz were all elected by the Player Ballot – a vote of the players, managers and coaches. In addition, first baseman Kevin Youkilis can be selected as the final player on the American League's 34-man roster via the 2010 All-Star Game Final Vote sponsored by Sprint.

All of the Red Sox yes, not all of the players overall though.

I would think that players would not be able to vote for guys from their own team, though.

It appears from the paper that the players voted some pitchers in and
the manager had some selections as well.
But according to the internet story regarding the Sox it was the Players/Mgr.s and coaches.
You would think more info would be out there regarding this.
