Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon motions to the dugout after hitting a walk-off grand slam against the Tampa Bay Rays in the 9th inning to win the Rockies home opener 10-7 at Coors Field in Denver, Colorado on Friday, April 05, 2024. On Sunday, the Rockies’ veteran third baseman was selected to the National League All-Star team for the first time. He made the team as a reserve via the players’ vote.
McMahon, 29, entered Sunday’s game against Cincinnati slashing .272/.349/.456 with 14 home runs, 19 doubles and 45 RBIs. His 14 homers are two shy of tying the most he’s hit before the All-Star break. He hit 16 in 2021. This is a prove-it season for McMahon, who’s flashed promise since making his debut in 2017 but has been an inconsistent hitter.during last December’s winter meetings. “He’s an above-average defender, which makes him the average player. He can be better. There are a lot of people who believe that.”“It doesn’t hurt my feelings,” McMahon said just before the Rockies opened spring training. “Bill and I have a pretty open relationship about things like that.
