The addition of starting pitcher, and reigning Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal to the American League's All-Star game roster means that Detroit will have at least four representatives.
A few other Tigers are in contention to be possible replacements on the team.
In addition to Skubal, Javier Báez (center field) will play his third all-star game in his third different position alongside Gleyber Torres (second base) and Riley Green, who will also be in the outfield.
The game will be hosted by Atlanta on July 15.
