Who is playing in the SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game?
The All-Star is taking place over the next week, with events such as the Futures Game, a showcase of talented prospects that will get to the majors soon.
This Saturday some of the best minor league prospects in the league will get their first chance to play in a major league stadium, as the Futures Game takes place in Dodger Stadium. Fans of every team will take a look at what their future holds in this seven-inning contest that, even though it falls under All-Star Game celebrations, will happen at the same time as some major league games, including a Yankees-Red Sox.
As some of these prospects get ready for their debut in the second half of the season or in the coming one, fans can see how their development is going as they battle in a National League vs American League duel.
