DENVER — There were a pair of late additions to the American League All-Star team: Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Andrew Kittredge and Minnesota Twins left-hander Taylor Rogers.
They replaced New York Yankees right-hander Gerrit Cole and Seattle Mariners left-hander Yusei Kikuchi. Cole said the Yankees did not want him to pitch. Kikuchi went on the covid-19 injured list Sunday, tested negative twice and was activated Monday. Cole and Kikuchi were in Denver but were made inactive for Tuesday night.
