MLB announced full All-Star rosters, featuring Aaron Judge, Max Fried, and Jazz Chisholm Jr. Fried has excelled as the Yankees' ace following Gerrit Cole's surgery, achieving an 11-2 record and 2.27 ERA. Chisholm earned an All-Star nod with impressive recent performance, raising his season stats significantly. Paul Goldschmidt and Carlos Rodón were candidates but did not make the team due to poor performance and competition from strong pitchers, respectively. Fried’s continued dominance helped reverse the Yankees' struggles.
Aaron Judge had already been voted to start in the outfield, and now, Max Fried and Jazz Chisholm Jr. will join him. Fried has been a savior for the Yankee staring rotation this year, stepping up and filling the ace role after Gerrit Cole underwent Tommy John surgery. He helped stop the team's six-game losing streak today in Queens, and is now 11-2 with a 2.27 ERA and 111 strikeouts in 119 innings.
Chisholm might've been a lock with better health, but he used a scintillating stretch since coming off the IL to earn himself an All-Star nod. His recent hot hitting has pushed his season line up to .245/.341/.500, good for a 134 OPS+, all while contributing at multiple positions on defense.
