Yankees slugger Aaron Judge will have some company at the 2025 MLB All-Star Game.
Judge was previously named the starter in RF after leading the AL through the opening round of voting.
Now, ace Max Fried and infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. have also been selected to represent the organization.
For Fried, it will mark a return to Atlanta, where he spent the first eight years of his career.
The southpaw has been spectacular during his first season with the Yankees, taking home the victory in 11 of his 19 outings and pitching to a 2.27 ERA.
With Gerrit Cole sidelined for the season, he's stepped in perfectly atop their banged-up rotation, and now logs his third career All-Star appearance.
"It's an honor," Fried said. "We have a lot of players on this team who are really deserving. Hopefully, over the next week or so, we can add a few more, but it's special and it's a really cool experience to go and be able to share that with teammates and family."
Chisholm has been forced to battle through some injuries in his first full season with the organization, but he's been extremely productive when healthy.
The 27-year-old infielder is hitting .245 with nine doubles, 10 stolen bases, 15 homers, 38 RBI, and a .841 OPS over 59 games.
This is his second career All-Star appearance.
