Overview
- David Peterson was named to the National League All-Star roster Thursday, filling the spot vacated by Giants left-hander Robbie Ray.
- Peterson secured his first All-Star nod after posting a 6–4 record and a 3.06 ERA in 18 starts, including seven-plus innings of one-run ball against Baltimore.
- His selection boosts the Mets’ presence to four All-Stars alongside Francisco Lindor, Pete Alonso and Edwin Díaz.
- Robbie Ray, who is 9–3 with a 2.63 ERA in 19 starts this season, will be inactive for the game to preserve him for his Sunday start against the Dodgers.
- Logan Webb and reliever Randy Rodríguez will represent the Giants on the active National League roster in Atlanta despite Ray’s absence.
