Rosters Feature 24 Former First Round Picks, 15 Internationally-Born Players;
Hall of Famer Jim Thome, Four-Time All-Star Dennis Martinez to Manage;
Annual Showcase Returns to 7 Innings, Features AL vs. NL Format for First Time

Rosters for the 2019 SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game, which will be played at 7:00 p.m. (ET) on Sunday, July 7th

at Progressive Field in Cleveland, were announced by Major League Baseball earlier today on MLB Network’s “MLB

Central.” The SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game, which is now in its 21st year, features the top Minor League prospects

competing as part of All-Star Sunday.

For the first time in its history, the Futures Game will feature an American League vs.

National League format, following the U.S. vs. World match-ups of the last 20 years. In

addition, the game will return to a seven-inning format and will follow the All-Star Celebrity

Softball Game. Hall of Famer Jim Thome will lead the AL Futures Team, while four-time All-

Star Dennis Martinez manages the NL Futures Team.

Major League Baseball, in conjunction with MLB Pipeline, Baseball America and the 30 Major League Clubs,

selected the 25 players currently on each team. Each Major League organization is represented and players from all

full-season Minor Leagues were eligible to be selected. Complete Futures Game rosters, prospect analysis and

rankings can be found at www.MLB.com/pipeline.

The teams feature a combined 24 former first round draft picks (13 on AL; 11 on NL), one player picked in

Competitive Balance Round A (NL), seven second round picks (1 on AL; 6 on NL), two third round picks (1 on AL; 1

on NL); two fifth round picks (AL) and two seventh round picks (AL). Among the 24 first round picks, seven were

selected in the 2018 Draft, nine in the 2017 Draft and eight in the 2016 Draft.

The two squads contain a combined 15 internationally-born players representing nine different countries and

territories outside the 50 United States. The Dominican Republic is represented by five players, followed by Colombia

(2), Cuba (2) and Puerto Rico (2). Canada, Mexico, Panama and Venezuela are each represented by one player on

the rosters.
