They shouldn't have had a representative. Stupid rule that takes spots away from deserving players.

The whole fan voting process takes away from deserving players.

I think MLB wimped out on the decision of placing Puig on the All-Star team.

Putting him in that last slot voting is weak.

However, in the Texas-Houston game a poll of fans said 53% to 47% not deserving....so what do I know.

It's a reward for first half production and popularity....he has both...and MLB needs that.
