Today Major League Baseball announced that RHP Yosver Zulueta has been selected to represent the American League at the 2023 SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game as part of MLB All-Star festivities at T-Mobile Park in Seattle, WA on July 8.

The 25-year-old was also selected to represent the AL and Toronto Blue Jays in the game last season in Los Angeles. Zulueta was credited with the victory in the AL Futures 6-4 win over the NL Futures by recording an out in the bottom of the second inning, needing just one pitch for the inning-ending out.

Zulueta entered the 2023 season as the Blue Jays third ranked prospect, according to MLB Pipeline. He is 2-2 with a 4.34 ERA in 23 outings for the Buffalo Bisons, including seven starts, this season totaling 37.1 innings pitched. In June, the Remedios, Cuba native is 1-0 with a 2.84 ERA in 10 outings. He has racked up 42 strikeouts in his first full season at Triple-A with Buffalo.

His first career Triple-A victory came on May 25 in a relief appearance against the Lehigh Valley IronPigs. Zulueta was originally signed by the Blue Jays to a Minor League contract on June 11, 2019. He has made a total of 45 Minor League appearances in parts of three seasons, including 26 with the Herd.

The Futures Game will be streamed on Peacock at 7:00 p.m. ET, on July 8.
