And if he is voted into the All-Star Game via the final vote it will be a joke. I don't care what the guy has accomplished in only about a month's worth of games. There are other players out there more worthy who have been playing the whole season.

Puig has been really amazing, but this media infatuation with him has GOT to stop, because that admiration will turn into straight hatred (and not "hate on" hatred) really quick.
It's already happening. ESPN/MLB with their LeBron James, Tim Tebow, Brett Favre-ification of him is getting to be way too much.Comment

With his first-inning home run, Mike Trout has reached the 50 HR/50 SB mark faster than any player in A.L. history (266 games).

manny makes it look so effortless. Jezz man, show some effort at least. You're making every other 3rd baseman look like a three year old kid with that arm.MLB: Boston Red Sox, Atlanta Braves

Although he probably couldn't keep that performance up for a full season, it is ridiculous to see that would it would be up there with Babe Ruth's best seasons and Yastrzemski's triple crown season in '67. Would also destroy the record Trout set for rookies.Comment

Puig needs to be in the All Star game. Baseball needs name recognition and to keep attracting new fans with stars, especially after the huge disgrace most of the "traditional" stars are. Old crusty baseball fans can die, they're the ones turning the sport into more of a niche than hockey.Tampa Bay Rays

Re: 7/1 - 7/7 Game Discussion Thread
They are. And guys like Puig will help that, not hurt it. Especially if he's arrogant about it.
There's no way one player can do that for MLB, but guys like Puig, Trout, Harper, etc. will do that. It's also great seeing teams like Pittsburgh make it back to the top and the resurgence of national attention there again.
Denying Puig an All Star spot is as stupid as having Prince Fielder and Jason Castro on the team.Tampa Bay Rays
