Texas rookie Yu Darvish and fellow starters Jake Peavy of the White Sox

The other NL candidates: Arizona second baseman Aaron Hill, Atlanta outfielder Michael Bourn, and St. Louis third baseman David Freese.

The five candidates for the final AL roster spot are all righthanded pitchers: Texas rookie Yu Darvish and fellow starters Jake Peavy of the White Sox and Jason Hammel of Baltimore, and relievers Jonathan Broxton of the Royals and Ernesto Frieri of the Angels.

Third baseman Pablo Sandoval, catcher Buster Posey, and outfielder Melky Cabrera of San Francisco overcame late deficits to win starting spots. Giants ace Matt Cain, who pitched a perfect game in June, made the NL pitching staff.
