What happened: Nick Martinez and Ceddanne Rafaela have been named to the American League All-Star roster, replacing Ranger Suarez and Aaron Judge. The move marks Rafaela's first All-Star selection.

Why it matters: The nod caps a strong first half for Rafaela, the same Rafaela whose glove work in center field has drawn leaguewide attention since June. Judge and Suarez come off the roster as replacements are finalized ahead of the game.

What to watch: Martinez and Rafaela will represent the AL when the All-Star Game is played.
