Right-hander Nick Martinez of the Tampa Bay Rays and outfielder Ceddanne Rafaela of the Boston Red Sox were named as roster replacements Friday on the American League All-Star team.
Both Martinez and Rafaela are first-time All-Stars.
Martinez replaces Boston Red Sox left-hander Ranger Suarez, who is dealing with a left groin strain, while Rafaela replaced New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge, who is out with a stress fracture in his first right rib.
The All-Star Game will take place Tuesday at Philadelphia.
Martinez, 35, is 7-2 with a 2.61 ERA over 17 starts in his first season with Rays. Over nine major league seasons, he is 55-61 with a 4.01 ERA in 297 appearances (146 starts).
Rafaela, 25, is batting .283 with eight home runs and 39 RBIs in 87 games for the Red Sox. In his fourth major league season, Rafaela is a career .255 hitter with 41 home runs, 182 RBIs and 54 stolen bases in 423 games, while earning a Gold Glove Award in center field last season.
