An update on how the Huskies in the majors are doing at the all-star break.

The 2018 MLB season has reached its annual All Star break and six former UConn baseball players have seen playing time so far at the major league level.

Center Fielder George Springer - Houston Astros

George Springer, the 2017 World Series MVP, has been the leadoff hitter for the first-place place Houston Astros. He was named to the American League All Star team for the second straight season despite batting .249 with 15 home runs and 46 runs batted in. His numbers have been down as of late thanks to a tough June that has transitioned into July.
