if he truly deserves it then he'll be good next yr and actually earn the spot  ;)

What do you mean? Jeter's going to get in and he hasn't played a game all season.
This All Star Games fan voting is just one big popularity contest. Every year there's going to be a deserving snub and a guy who made it onto the squad because the masses saw him on Sportscenter once and think he's good.
They're going to find some gimmicky way to get Puig onto the ASG roster, I guarantee it.
Oh and Howie Kendrick's going to be a huge snub. He has no chance against Cano and Pedroira even though Kendrick's 2013 has been a lot better.

Didn't he just have the best first month of anyone in history? Why not?

the best was probably Shane Spencer of the '98 Yankees

Hack Wilson - real:
i looked it up


puig in 27 games: .443/.473/.745 with 8 homers and 21 runs in 126 at-bats

spencer in 27 games:  .373/.411/.910 with 10 homers and 18 runs in 67 at-bats



puig hits for better average but look at how spencer had 10 homers with half as many at-bats

because hes played 1 month.  think about how insignificant that is in history.  whats next, 2 great weeks and hes in the mvp discussion?  espn has corrupted folks minds i swear (not necessarily you just making the point)

pablebon just said the same thing.  i believe he called this convo "a joke" and i agree w him
