Pablo Sandoval smiled mischievously Monday when asked about beating out David Wright as the National League's starting third baseman.
"New York has pretty good fans,'' Sandoval said. "So I think that this moment shows me that Giants fans are better than New York.

Plus that East Coast bias really shows when I'm constantly hearing about Mike Trout....

Bummer for Nats fans (I guess) but Harper no longer has the stage to himself..

Upton
(9,709 posts)you know the way he is..they could throw one at his head and he might whack it for extra bases. Here he is making the remark around the 45-50 sec mark.. Pablo is responding to a question honestly and good naturedly.

"ASG election of 'Kung Fu Panda' shows the value of a cute nickname. Surprised Giants fans didn't elect a 'ball dude' to start at 3B."--Sandy Alderson
The possible sexual assault charges are the concern for Sandoval and Giants fans. Not what the Mets, their fans, or anybody else thinks about this or his ASG start..
