Slumping Gallo on Home Run Derby: 'I wouldn't bank on it'

The last two games at Globe Life Park featured the past two winners of the annual Home Run Derby — Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge — and a slugger who many believe could win it some day soon.

The projected future winner is Joey Gallo, the Texas Rangers' left fielder/first baseman who has hit more home runs in his career than singles.

He's also only a career .200 hitter and insists that must change before he every partakes in the All-Star Game contest.

In other words, don't look for Gallo to be swinging for the fences July 16 in Washington D.
