Scioscia doesn't think Puig deserves an All-Star spot. I'm not sure it would bother me if he made it.

Plenty of guys make it on name recognition alone and not on their numbers. Puig is putting up sick numbers. Sure, it's a small sample size but I wouldn't have an issue with him getting a bench spot.

if they let fans vote on the team, and the fans vote him onto the team, that's how it works -- nm - charlie Jul 5, 09:31

I don't see why he wouldn't. He's been one of the best players so far this season. End of discussion. -- nm - Beaker Jul 5, 08:07 5
- The small sample size is the issue. He's only been up a month. People have hot starts and then level out. - Krusty Jul 5, 08:13 4
  - see: Chris Shelton. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 5, 08:19 3
    - He had a good year. :-) - Krusty Jul 5, 08:25 2
      - Shelton had a good April. By July he was down in Triple A. - Mel Profit Jul 5, 08:27 1
        
        The HR derby would be a fair compromise. -- nm - Krusty Jul 5, 08:29
It would bother me if he does *not* make it. - Spawn Jul 5, 08:03 1
- Baseball is struggling to keep and make new fans and he is what people want to see. He's one of the most talked about players and it's for what he's - Krusty Jul 5, 08:11
