Rays' Brandon Lowe and Jonathan Aranda Named to AL All-Star Team
Rays' Brandon Lowe and Jonathan Aranda Named to AL All-Star Team originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Rays received some exciting news before their series finale against the Minnesota Twins on Sunday, just before the MLB All-Star Game next week. Advertisement Infielder Brandon Lowe and first baseman Jonathan Aranda were notified prior to the game that they had been named to the 2025 American League All-Star team. Both players are having outstanding seasons with the team, with Lowe batting .273, an on-base percentage of .325, and 19 home runs, marking Lowe's second All-Star selection. Additionally, Jonathan Aranda will be participating in his first All-Star Game this year after an impressive first half, posting a .315 batting average for the season, a .394 on-base percentage, and 10 home runs. Although Lowe had to leave the game due to an injury, he stated in his postgame interview that he expects to play in the All-Star Game without further issues. Advertisement These selections come at a time when the Rays are currently in third place in the American League East with a record of 49-41. They are tied with the New York Yankees, who also hold the same record. Over the last 10 games, the Rays have gone 4-6, which is less than ideal. Despite recent struggles, it's worth noting that without the contributions of Lowe and Aranda, the Tampa Bay would be in a very different position this season. In addition, third baseman Junior Caminero, has had an exceptional season this year, was not selected for the American League All-Star team. As the Rays' leading home run hitter with 21 this season and a breakout performer, some might argue he deserves to be on the team; however, it's important to recognize that his contributions have been crucial to the team's current standing. Overall, the season has been unexpectedly remarkable for the Rays, who compete in one of the most competitive divisions in Major League Baseball. With the Blue Jays, Yankees, and Red Sox all remaining competitive in this demanding division, the Tampa Bay have certainly exceeded expectations. The team may likely add more bats or pitchers before the upcoming trade deadline as they pursue a playoff spot after narrowly missing the postseason last year. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 7, 2025, where it first appeared.
