The 95th Midsummer Classic presented by Mastercard will take place on July 15 inside Atlanta’s Truist Park at 8 p.m. ET on FOX.
The Tigers (6 All-Stars) and Dodgers (5) lead their respective leagues. Los Angeles' contingent includes left-hander Clayton Kershaw, who was selected by Commissioner Rob Manfred as a “Legend Pick” in recognition of his illustrious career. Kershaw, who recently became the 20th member of the 3,000-strikeout club, is now an 11-time All-Star.
Kershaw is one of 14 2025 All-Stars who have earned at least five selections in their careers, along with Freddie Freeman (nine), Chris Sale (nine), Aroldis Chapman (eight), Aaron Judge (seven), Manny Machado (seven), José Ramírez (seven), Josh Hader (six), Ronald Acuña Jr., (five), Pete Alonso (five), Jacob deGrom (five), Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (five), Shohei Ohtani (five) and Francisco Lindor (five).

Rosters can still change between now and the All-Star Game if players drop out due to injury or other factors and are replaced by new players. Any replacements will be added here when they are announced.
Here's a breakdown of the 2025 All-Star rosters -- the starters, pitching staffs and reserves for each league:

Elected starters
AMERICAN LEAGUE
C: Cal Raleigh, SEA (1st All-Star selection)
1B: Vladimir Guerrero Jr., TOR (5th)
2B: Gleyber Torres, DET (3rd)
3B: José Ramírez, CLE (7th) #
SS: Jacob Wilson, ATH (1st)
OF: Aaron Judge, NYY (7th)
OF: Riley Greene, DET (2nd)
OF: Javier Báez, DET (3rd)
DH: Ryan O’Hearn, BAL (1st)
Judge, who leads the Majors in batting average (.355), on-base percentage (.462) and slugging percentage (.733) to name just a few categories, was appropriately the leading vote-getter among all players. But he has stiff competition for AL MVP from Raleigh. His MLB-best 38 home runs are the most by any catcher before the All-Star break. He will also be the first Mariners catcher to start the Midsummer Classic.
Ramírez and Guerrero have each been selected to five consecutive All-Star Games and have earned their fourth start, although Ramírez has opted out of playing in this year's edition. (The Rays' Junior Caminero has been named the AL's starting third baseman in Ramírez's place, while the Astros' Isaac Paredes took Ramírez's spot on the roster.) Conversely, Torres and Greene are first-time All-Star starters. They have been key cogs for a Tigers team that owns the best record in the AL. Báez, enjoying a resurgent season in the Motor City, will start his third All-Star Game. The Tigers have a trio of elected All-Star starters for the first time since 2007 and for just the fourth time in franchise history.
O’Hearn has enjoyed a breakout season at age 31 with the Orioles, highlighted by a 140 OPS+ entering Sunday. Wilson, a strong Rookie of the Year candidate, is second only to Judge among qualifiers in batting average (.332).

NATIONAL LEAGUE
C: Will Smith, LAD (3rd All-Star selection)
1B: Freddie Freeman, LAD (9th)
2B: Ketel Marte, AZ (3rd)
3B: Manny Machado, SD (7th)
SS: Francisco Lindor, NYM (5th)
OF: Ronald Acuña Jr., ATL (5th)
OF: Pete Crow-Armstrong, CHC (1st)
OF: Kyle Tucker, CHC (4th)
DH: Shohei Ohtani, LAD (5th)
The NL lineup is full of household names. Ohtani, arguably the game’s most recognizable name around the world, was the NL’s leading vote-getter. He is an All-Star for the fifth straight year. Only his teammate Freeman (seven) has more consecutive Midsummer Classic selections. The Dodgers also have a familiar face behind the plate in Smith. He is second to Ohtani among qualified NL hitters in OPS (.965).
The 23-year-old Crow-Armstrong has the most FanGraphs WAR in the NL (4.9). Crow-Armstrong, who became the fourth-fastest player in MLB history to reach 25 homers and 25 steals in a season (doing so in his first 92 games), is joined in the outfield by Tucker. He has 17 homers and 22 steals through his first 95 games with the Cubs.
Acuña has been phenomenal since making his season debut in May. He’ll make his fifth All-Star start but his first in front of his home crowd. Lindor is an All-Star starter for the first time in his decorated 11-season career. Machado and Marte round out an NL infield that has earned a combined 27 All-Star nods.

Pitchers
American League
Hunter Brown ^ #, HOU (1st All-Star selection)
Kris Bubic *, KC (1st)
Aroldis Chapman ^, BOS (8th)
Garrett Crochet ^ #, BOS (2nd)
Jacob deGrom ^ #, TEX (5th)
Carlos Estévez +, KC (2nd) -- replaced Jacob deGrom
Max Fried ^ #, NYY (3rd)
Josh Hader ^, HOU (6th)
Yusei Kikuchi * #, LAA (2nd)
Casey Mize +, DET (1st) -- replaced Garrett Crochet
Andrés Muñoz ^, SEA (2nd)
Drew Rasmussen +, TB (1st) -- replaced Yusei Kikuchi
Carlos Rodón +, NYY (3rd) -- replaced Max Fried
Joe Ryan +, MIN (1st) -- replaced Hunter Brown
Tarik Skubal ^, DET (2nd)
Shane Smith *, CWS (1st)
Bryan Woo *, SEA (1st)
The AL pitching staff includes 10 hurlers with previous All-Star experience, four of whom -- Crochet, Fried, Muñoz and Skubal -- made it last year. Looking even more dominant than he did in his 2024 AL Cy Young Award-winning season, Skubal will draw the start on the mound for the AL.
Chapman leads the way here with eight selections, though this is his first time going to the Midsummer Classic since 2021. The same goes for deGrom, a two-time Cy Young Award winner who has returned to form this year after missing most of the previous two seasons while recovering from Tommy John surgery.
Brown (2.43 ERA), Bubic (2.48 ERA), Ryan (2.72 ERA), Woo (2.75 ERA) and Mize (3.15 ERA), are among the first-timers. So is Rasmussen, who has made a remarkable comeback after his third reconstructive elbow surgery. Rounding out the list of first-time All-Stars on the AL pitching staff is Smith, who becomes the first rookie pitcher in White Sox history to make the All-Star team, as well as the second player since at least 2000 (joining Dan Uggla) to be named an All-Star the season immediately after being selected in the Rule 5 Draft, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
National League
Andrew Abbott +, CIN (1st) -- replaced Yoshinobu Yamamoto
Jason Adam ^, SD (1st All-Star selection)
Matthew Boyd * #, CHC (1st)
Edwin Díaz ^, NYM (3rd)
MacKenzie Gore ^, WSH (1st)
Clayton Kershaw *, LAD (11th) -- “Legend Pick”
Trevor Megill +, MIL (1st) -- replaced Freddy Peralta
Jacob Misiorowski +, MIL (1st) -- replaced Matthew Boyd
Adrian Morejon +, SD (1st) -- replaced Zack Wheeler
Freddy Peralta * #, MIL (2nd)
David Peterson +, NYM (1st) -- replaced Robbie Ray
Robbie Ray * #, SF (2nd)
Randy Rodríguez ^, SF (1st)
Chris Sale ^ #, ATL (9th)
Paul Skenes ^, PIT (2nd)
Robert Suarez +, SD (2nd) -- replaced Chris Sale
Logan Webb ^, SF (2nd)
Zack Wheeler ^ #, PHI (3rd)
Yoshinobu Yamamoto * #, LAD (1st)

This makes two All-Star selections in two years for Skenes, who started the Midsummer Classic for the NL last year en route to the NL Rookie of the Year Award. Skenes, who leads MLB with a 2.01 ERA through 20 starts in 2025, has been tabbed to start for the NL once again.
Fresh off becoming the 20th member of the 3,000-strikeout club, Kershaw has been named to the NL All-Star roster by Commissioner Rob Manfred as a “Legend Pick,” tying the lefty with Mike Trout for the most All-Star selections among active players. Sale, the reigning NL Cy Young Award winner, is now tied for third on that list after earning his ninth selection, though he is expected to be out until late August due to a fractured rib cage.
Wheeler and Webb are also All-Stars for the second consecutive year. With his first All-Star nod, Yamamoto adds his name to the ever-expanding list of Japanese players to become MLB All-Stars. Boyd and Adam -- in their 11th and eighth MLB seasons, respectively -- are also among the first-timers. So is the hard-throwing Misiorowski, who replaced Boyd on the roster just a month after his MLB debut. He'll head to Atlanta with five career games on his resume, the fewest for any All-Star in history.
Reserves
CATCHERS
American League
Alejandro Kirk ^, TOR, (2nd All-Star selection)
After starting the All-Star Game behind the plate for the AL in 2022, Kirk will back up Raleigh this year, marking the second All-Star selection of the Mexico native’s career. He’s the first catcher in Blue Jays history to earn multiple All-Star nods. Following a pair of down seasons with the bat, Kirk has rebounded in a big way this year. Add in his exemplary defense and Kirk has been worth 3.0 WAR (per FanGraphs) for the Blue Jays, who are trying to go from worst to first in the AL East.

National League
Hunter Goodman ^, COL, (1st All-Star selection)
Two years after Elias Díaz improbably earned MVP honors with a lead-flipping homer in the eighth inning of the 2023 All-Star Game, the Rockies are sending another backstop to the Midsummer Classic. Goodman, 25, has been one of the lone bright spots for the Rox in 2025, recording 17 homers, 52 RBIs and an .842 OPS over 85 games.

INFIELDERS
American League
Jonathan Aranda ^, TB, (1st All-Star selection)
Alex Bregman ^ #, BOS (3rd)
Junior Caminero +, TB (1st) -- replaced Alex Bregman
Jazz Chisholm Jr. *, NYY (2nd)
Maikel Garcia +, KC (1st) -- replaced Brandon Lowe
Brandon Lowe ^ #, TB (2nd)
Zach McKinstry +, DET (1st) -- replaced Jeremy Peña
Isaac Paredes + #, HOU (2nd) -- replaced José Ramírez
Jeremy Peña ^ #, HOU (1st)
Bobby Witt Jr. *, KC (2nd)
One of the game's biggest stars, Witt makes his second straight All-Star appearance after finishing second in AL MVP voting last season, while Peña, Caminero, Aranda, McKinstry and Garcia are first-timers in the midst of career years. Caminero, who replaced Bregman on the AL roster, will be starting at third base after José Ramírez opted out of the game. Despite missing significant time with a right quad strain, Bregman made the All-Star squad in his first season with the Red Sox. Chisholm did the same in his first full year with the Yankees. Lowe, whose 19 homers are tied for the most in MLB by a second baseman, was named an All-Star for the first time since his 2019 rookie campaign. Paredes became an All-Star for the second time in his debut season with the Astros, taking J-Ram's spot on the roster.

National League
Pete Alonso ^, NYM, (5th All-Star selection)
Elly De La Cruz ^, CIN (2nd)
Brendan Donovan ^, STL (1st)
Matt Olson *, ATL (3rd)
Eugenio Suárez ^, AZ (2nd)
For the second straight year, the NL All-Star roster will feature one of baseball’s most exciting players in De La Cruz, who has recorded 18 homers, 25 steals and an .854 OPS over 97 games in 2025. The NL’s infield reserves also include two of the league’s best first basemen in Alonso and Olson, each of whom has an MLB home run title on his resume. Only one NL player (Ohtani) has socked more dingers than Suárez (31) in 2025. The D-backs third baseman is going back to the Midsummer Classic for the first time since 2018. On the other end of the power spectrum is Donovan, who has eight home runs this year but is slashing .295/.366/.430.
OUTFIELDERS
American League
Randy Arozarena +, SEA (2nd All-Star selection) -- replaced Julio Rodríguez
Byron Buxton ^, MIN (2nd)
Steven Kwan ^, CLE (2nd)
Julio Rodríguez ^ #, SEA (3rd)
The oft-injured Buxton has stayed relatively healthy in 2025, allowing his dynamic skill set to shine through. At the time he was selected to the All-Star team, he was one of six players with at least 15 homers and 15 steals in 2025. Kwan, who started the All-Star Game in left field for the AL last year, is headed back to the Midsummer Classic as a reserve, having notched a .285 average with six homers, 11 steals and a .742 OPS. This marks J-Rod's third All-Star selection in four big league seasons, though he'll skip this year's game. He was replaced on the roster by his teammate Arozarena.

National League
Corbin Carroll ^, AZ, (2nd All-Star selection)
Kyle Stowers *, MIA (1st)
Fernando Tatis Jr. ^, SD (3rd)
James Wood ^, WSH (1st)
The NL’s reserve outfielders offer quite the blend of power and speed. Carroll, the 2022 NL Rookie of the Year, returns to the Midsummer Classic with 21 homers, 11 steals and an .874 OPS in 80 games, while a perennial homer and steal threat in Tatis makes his third appearance on the All-Star roster. Wood will appear in the All-Star Game for the first time after a stellar first half (24 HR, .915 OPS). The three will be joined by Stowers, whose breakout year for Miami earned him his first All-Star nod.

DESIGNATED HITTERS
American League
Brent Rooker ^, ATH (2nd All-Star selection)
After being snubbed last season, Rooker is headed back to the Midsummer Classic for the second time in three years. The 30-year-old is on pace for his third consecutive 30-homer campaign while hitting .279 with an .860 OPS.
National League
Kyle Schwarber ^, PHI, (3rd All-Star selection)
For the second time in his Phillies tenure and the third time overall, Schwarber is an All-Star. The 32-year-old is having one of the best seasons of his career, slashing .247/.378/.545 with 30 homers, 69 RBIs and 66 walks.
