All-Star, Tarik Skubal and Detroit Tigers
Digest more
It is all but official now. With Max Fried removed from the American League All-Star roster and replaced by Yankees left-hander Carlos Rodon, it’s now obvious who Aaron Boone will hand the ball to Tuesday night.
The Tigers will have a half-dozen All-Star players, tying their highest total ever and breaking a tie with the Dodgers for the most in the bigs this year. Casey Mize became their sixth on Friday, when the right-handed starter was named as a replacement for Boston’s Garrett Crochet.
Frustration grows in Detroit as a Tigers pitcher calls out All-Star snubs, insisting the team deserves greater recognition this season.
