In a shocking press conference yesterday, Nick Punto announced that he would be turning down Robinson Cano's request that he represent the American League in next Monday's State Farm Home Run Derby.
When asked his reasons for declining Cano's offer, Punto explained hitting home runs was against his principles, and that heart, hustle, grit, determination and being a total badass are attributes that really win a baseball game.
"You can't slide headfist on a home run," Punto argued. When asked how he had hit 15 home runs in his 12 year career if he found homers fundamentally wrong, Punto admitted that he wasn't abovem, "Unfortunate lapses in concentration."
