Rosters for World vs. USA All Star Futures game Sunday
By Mike Marteny
The futures game is one of my favorite activities of the All Star Break. The home run derby can be fun, and the MLB All Star game itself is usually a good show, but the Futures game is a chance for most of us to catch a glimpse of some great players that will be on our favorite team soon.
After all, Andrew McCutchen and Jose Reyes both did well when they played in the Futures game.
