Zach McKinstry, Isaac Paredes Added To AL All-Star Team

The Detroit Tigers have the best record in the majors. Now they are tied for having the most All-Stars, too.

Zach McKinstry was picked Wednesday to replace Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena, who has been dealing with a rib injury. The infielder-outfielder will join Detroit second baseman Gleyber Torres and outfielders Javier Baez and Riley Greene -- all AL starters -- and staff ace Tarik Skubal, who also is among the candidates to start the All-Star Game on Tuesday night in Atlanta.

Meanwhile, Astros third baseman Isaac Paredes was picked Wednesday to replace Cleveland\'s Jose Ramirez, who had been the starting third baseman. That gives the Astros four All-Stars in Peña and pitchers Hunter Brown and Josh Hader.

Terrible selections. This years All-Star reserves is very questionable IMO.
