HOUSTON — Yordan Alvarez and Framber Valdez were selected to the 2023 American League All-Star Game.
Alvarez was selected by the players while Valdez was selected by MLB. Kyle Tucker was added to the list on Tuesday to replace injured Angels' CF Mike Trout.
It's the second straight season the three made the All-Star team.
Last year, Valdez became the first Astros pitcher to earn a win in an All-Star Game when he got the W in an American League team win at Dodger Stadium. He tossed a scoreless inning of relief in the 3-2 victory.
Astros manager Dusty Baker will manage the team for the second straight season. His entire coaching staff will join him.
Houston has 30 All-Star selections since 2017, more than any other American League team in that span.
The All-Star Game will be played on July 11 at T-Mobile Park in Seattle.
