It’s almost time for the annual MLB All-Star contest in which we get to watch baseballs get hit very long ways.
That’s right, the 2024 Home Run Derby is set for Monday night at the Rangers’ Globe Life Field in Arlington, and the lineup is a great one full of big names ready to wow us.
So let’s look at the power-hitting players who will be facing off on Monday — before Tuesday’s All-Star Game, of course — with one former winner in the mix, and they’ll be slugging in a new format that will be unveiled this year to give us what should be a great show:
Pete Alonso, New York Mets
Alec Bohm, Philadelphia Phillies
Gunnar Henderson, Baltimore Orioles
Bobby Witt Jr., Kansas City Royals
Jose Ramirez, Cleveland Guardians
Adolis Garcia, Texas Rangers
Marcell Ozuna, Atlanta Braves
Teoscar Hernandez, Los Angeles Dodgers
