WEST SACRAMENTO -- Jacob Wilson will be accompanied by a teammate at the 2025 All-Star Game.
The Athletics' Brent Rooker will be one of eight batters looking to win the home run derby ahead of Tuesday night's MLB All-Star Game in Atlanta.
Athletics slugger Brent Rooker is adding his name to the Home Run Derby that also includes Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh.
Brent Rooker has established himself as one of the most prolific sluggers in baseball over the past few seasons. So it’s only fitting that his second career All-Star selection will include a spot in the 2025 T-Mobile Home Run Derby.
However, according to Jim Bowden of The Athletic, the Tigers are not expected to land Athletics slugger Brent Rooker, despite the great fit and the Athletics' struggles this season.
