SPARTANBURG, S.C. (FOX Carolina) – For the first time in Spartanburgers\u2019 history, Hub City will send a player to All-Star Weekend. <\/p>\n

Major League Baseball announced its Futures Game rosters on Wednesday, with Hub City right-hander Caden Scarborough selected to pitch for Team AL.<\/p>\n

Officials said that Scarborough is one of ten rostered pitchers for the American League farmhands and the only Rangers prospect<\/a> to make the roster. <\/p>\n

After recovering from surgery to remove a malignant melanoma<\/a> on his neck, Scarborough returned to Hub City. In his second go-around in High-A, the 2023 sixth-round pick has made five starts and struck out 25 batters through 19 1\/3 innings pitched. <\/p>\n

Dating back to Aug. 21, 2025, Scarborough holds a 0-2 record, a 1.95 ERA, and 44 strikeouts to nine walks over a total of eight regular-season High-A starts. He recently tied a career-high nine strikeouts over four innings against Frederick. <\/p>\n

\u201cCaden is an unbelievable person, an elite competitor, a hard worker, and a pure athlete,\u201d said Texas Rangers Director of Player Development Josh Bonifay. \u201cHe boasts power stuff, he attacks hitters with a plus arsenal, and he dominates in the strike zone. We are proud of what Caden has accomplished so far and the obstacles he has had to overcome, and we are excited to watch him compete against some of the game\u2019s best.\u201d <\/p>\n

While with Team AL, Scarborough will be under the watch of pitching coach and Hall of Famer Billy Wagner as well as bullpen coach Matt Ellmyer, who played collegiately at Wofford and began his coaching career with the ACL Rangers in 2023, the year Scarborough was drafted. The skipper for Team AL is Larry Bowa, who began his professional career with the Spartanburg Phillies in 1966. <\/p>\n

The Futures Game will be held at Citizens Bank Park, the home of the Philadelphia Phillies, on June 12. <\/p>\n

Scarborough and the Spartanburgers are in the midst of a six-game set in Asheville. Hub City returns home for one final series before the All-Star Break against the Bowling Green Hot Rods from July 7 to July 12. Tickets are available here <\/a>or by calling 864-594-0701.<\/p>\n
