There's actually been a bit of a push from the media to get Yasiel Puig in. Don't think it'll happen though. Not enough time for him to receive write-in votes, and Bochy's said he doesn't think 3 weeks makes an All Star, so he won't be a Final Vote option. That leaves only the player vote, and I think a lot of the players feel the same way and will hold off.

Side idea: maybe put Yasiel Puig and Wil Myers in the Home Run Derby as special rookie entrants to generate some extra interest?

David Wright (captain)
Carlos Gonzalez
Giancarlo Stanton
Yasiel Puig
Robinson Cano (captain)
Chris Davis
Prince Fielder
Wil Myers

Would be a pretty fun lineup.
