SAN FRANCISCO -- Giants starter Carlos Rodón, named a National League All-Star earlier this week to replace Brewers closer Josh Hader, himself will be replaced by Dodgers starter and former Giant Tyler Anderson, the league announced on July 16.

Rodón has developed a blister and a split fingernail on his pitching hand. While the Giants expect that Rodón’s injuries will not prevent him from starting one of the first two games at Dodger Stadium after the break, Rodón said he and the staff felt it was best to keep him out of the All-Star Game, lest he aggravate the finger.

“I would have liked to throw in it this year, but I think not throwing would be a better decision, not only for myself but my teammates,” Rodón said. “I have a job to do for the San Francisco Giants, and that’s more important than the All-Star Game, although it’s an honor. It really is.”

Rodón cited his injury history and a desire to make all of his second-half starts.

This is the second year in a row in which Rodón was named an All-Star but will not pitch. He was an American League All-Star last year, when he was with the White Sox. Rodón said he plans to go to Los Angeles and take part in the ceremonies.

Rodón was left off original NL All-Star team earlier in the week. He entered Saturday ranked eighth in the NL in ERA (2.66), and his 131 strikeouts ranked second to Brewers starter Corbin Burnes, whom Rodón faced in Thursday night’s 3-2 Milwaukee victory.
