PLEASE DON’T LET THIS GUY BEAT DAVID WRIGHT…
The second National League All-Star update has been released and six-time All-Star David Wright is losing even more ground to Pablo Sandoval of the San Francisco Giants for starting third baseman.
With 1,473,381 votes, Wright now trails Sandoval by over 200,000 votes almost doubling the gap from the first ASG voting release a week ago.
Of course with attendance and interest waning at Citi Field, and the San Francisco Giants continuing to sellout almost every home game, the only shot Wright has at being selected as a starter would be through an aggressive online get out the vote campaign. But so far that doesn’t seem to be working.
Daniel Murphy has picked up some slack and moved up to the 5th spot among NL second basemen, but it’s unlikely he’ll even get close to the runaway leader Brando Phillips of the Reds.
John Buck remains third among catchers and has no chance to catch Buster Posey who is the leading the National League with 1,961,861 votes.
Former Met Carlos Beltran has made his way into the top three in the outfield and trails only Justin Upton and Bryce Harper.
