PITTSBURGH - Felipe Rivero and Ivan Nova are not going to the All-Star Game. At least, not yet.
Neither Rivero or Nova was selected as a starter or reserve or was named to the final five fan vote by Major League Baseball on Sunday afternoon.
But there are plenty of opportunities for a pitcher to get added to the roster between now and July 11 in Miami. Pitchers that pitch in the days leading up to the All-Star game can be replaced for those that will be available.
That would seem to be more likely for Nova than Rivero, despite the latter's impressive 0.
