More All-Star Game: Final Vote candidates | AL Snubs | NL Snubs
The rosters for the 2014 All-Star Game were officially announced during a live broadcast on Sunday night. As a reminder, the starting position players are selected by the fans while the rest of the rosters are voted on by players and selected by All-Star managers John Farrell (Red Sox) and Mike Matheny (Cardinals).
The All-Star rosters run 34 players deep, but only 33 players for each team were announced Sunday. The final spot is up for grabs via the Final Vote fan voting. Any starting pitchers who pitch Sunday, July 13, are not eligible to pitch in the All-Star Game itself, which will be played at Target Field in Minneapolis on Tuesday, July 15. The Home Run Derby will be played the day before, and the Futures Game the day before that.
All 30 teams get at least one representative in the All-Star Game. Keep in mind that injured players will be replaced on the rosters between now and then. Here is an update of the rosters as they are announced:
