Joc Pederson named an All-Star starter

The San Francisco Giants didn’t make very many moves in the offseason, but they moves they did make are clearly paying off. Their top pitching addition, Carlos Rodón, has been one of the best starters in baseball. And their top position player addition?

Well, he’s headed to the 2022 MLB All-Star Game.

That’s right, Joc Pederson is headed to LA for the Midsummer Classic. It was announced on Friday night that the powerful lefty had made the starting lineup for the National League team when the All-Star Game takes place on Tuesday, July 19 at Dodger Stadium.
