Forty percent of the American League’s starting lineup in Tuesday night’s All-Star Game in Atlanta will be Detroit Tigers. Tigers second baseman Gleyber Torres will lead off for the AL and see the first pitch of the game from National League starter Paul Skenes. He’ll be followed by Tigers left fielder Riley Greene.

The 30 Major League teams chose 510 players in 17 rounds on Monday to conclude the 2025 draft. The 36 players picked on Monday joined five selected in the first three rounds on Sunday as the prospects with Alabama baseball roots among this year’s choices. The five prospects selected on Sunday included:

Mariners’ Cal Raleigh, Monday’s eventual winner of the Derby, only made it out of the first round by less than an inch. He and Rooker were tied for fourth with 17 home runs, but Raleigh advanced because his longest home run went further than Rooker’s.

Alabama State baseball players, Juan Cruz and Kameron Douglas were selected in the 20th round of the MLB draft.

A big piece of Rob Vaughn and Jason Jackson's pitching staff is expected to return in 2025, according to a new report.

The starting pitchers for the 2025 MLB All-Star Game are set. Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Paul Skenes will open the game on the mound for the National League, while Detroit Tigers lefty Tarik Skubal will start for the American League. Both Skenes and Skubal are making their second consecutive All-Star appearances.
