The Arizona Diamondbacks will be sending at least one player to Los Angeles to represent the franchise in the 2022 MLB All-Star Game next week. While the D-backs don’t necessarily have a surefire candidate to represent them at the game, they are entitled to at least one player representing them per the rules. The player that will be representing the D-backs at the All-Star game is Christian Walker/Merrill Kelly/Joe Mantiply. Walker/Kelly/Mantiply was selected on the roster via player vote/by Braves manager Brian Snitker.
Joe Mantiply, 31, was originally signed by the Diamondbacks as a Minor League free agent prior to the 2020 season.
