Jared Shuster to participate in 2022 MLB Futures Game

One of the features of the MLB All-Star break, in addition to the upcoming MLB Draft of course, is the MLB All-Star Futures Game which will be taking place on Saturday, July 16, 2022. While there are some explicit as well as implied constraints on how players are selected for the Futures Game, the long and short of it is that it is the minor league equivalent of the All-Star Game with each league facing off against each other. Until 2018, the teams were actually based on where a player was born (US vs. World) regardless of league, but now it more mirrors the major league format with the notable exception being that the game is seven innings.
