Another Rays player is headed to Seattle for this year's All-Star game!
Tampa Bay shortstop Wander Franco, who was surprisingly not initially named to the AL All-Star roster, was added to the team on Tuesday as an injury replacement. He will be filling the spot of New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge.
Franco now becomes the fourth Rays player to be named an All-Star this year alongside pitcher Shane McClanahan, outfield Randy Arozarena and first baseman Yandy Diaz. However, McClanahan was put on the 15-day injured list by Tampa Bay last week, a day after the 26-year-old left-hander came out of his second straight start due to mid-back tightness. His IL stint will run through the All-Star break and will be replaced by Seattle pitcher George Kirby.
