2025 All-Star Game starters revealed

The starters for the 2025 MLB All-Star Game presented by Mastercard have been unveiled. Here’s who will be taking the field for the American League and National League at the Midsummer Classic on July 15 (8 p.m. ET on FOX) at Atlanta’s Truist Park.

The results of the fan vote to determine this year's All-Star starters were announced on Wednesday on ESPN. Alongside Yankees slugger Aaron Judge and Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani -- who had already earned automatic bids as each league's leading vote-getter in Phase 1 of voting -- the starters include plenty of familiar faces, such as Freddie Freeman, and blossoming superstars like Seattle’s Cal Raleigh.

Thirteen teams are represented in this year's All-Star starting lineups, with the Tigers and Dodgers leading the way with three apiece, and the Cubs are the only other team to send multiple starters. There are nine players who were elected starters by the fans for the first time.

The complete 2025 All-Star rosters, including pitchers and position player reserves for both teams, will be revealed on Sunday at 5 p.m. ET on ESPN.

These are your All-Star Game starters for 2025.

The following numbers are entering Wednesday’s games.

American League

Catcher: Cal Raleigh, Mariners (1st starter election)

What a season it’s been for Big Dumper. The Mariners backstop is on pace for one of the best catching seasons of all time and could very well make home run history as a catcher. Raleigh has a 1.024 OPS and 33 home runs in 84 games, while his 5.6 Wins Above Replacement (FanGraphs) were second only to Judge. Raleigh is the first Mariners backstop to be selected to start the All-Star Game.

Runner-up: Alejandro Kirk, Blue Jays

First base: Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Blue Jays (4th starter election)

Mere months after signing a franchise-altering 14-year, $500 million extension, Guerrero has produced in a big way yet again with a .380 OBP, .828 OPS and 12 home runs in 84 games. This is Vlad Jr.’s second straight selection as an All-Star Game starter and his fourth in the last five years, as he chases his father’s total of six career fan vote victories.

Runner-up: Paul Goldschmidt, Yankees

Second base: Gleyber Torres, Tigers (1st starter election)

It’s been a remarkable first season in Detroit for Torres, whose 2.3 WAR is second only to Ketel Marte among second basemen. Torres is running a .284/.386/.437 line, with his .386 OBP representing a career high and ranking in the top 10 among hitters with at least 200 plate appearances this season. This is Torres’ third All-Star selection (first as a starter), and he’s the first Tigers starter at second base since Placido Polanco in 2007.

Runner-up: Jackson Holliday, Orioles

Shortstop: Jacob Wilson, Athletics (1st starter election)

Wilson has taken the Majors by storm in his first full season, with a .339 batting average that is second in the Majors behind Judge’s .358 mark. The A’s shortstop has cooled off a bit of late, but his 108 hits are second (once again behind Judge) and he’s third among qualifying shortstops with an .853 OPS. Wilson is the first A’s shortstop to start the All-Star Game since Bert Campaneris started three straight games from 1973-75.

Runner-up: Bobby Witt Jr., Royals

Third base: José Ramírez, Guardians (4th starter election)

Another year, another excellent season for Cleveland’s star third baseman. With 13 home runs and 21 steals in 80 games, Ramírez is on pace for his fifth straight 20-20 season and the seventh of his career. Ramírez paces all third basemen with 3.2 WAR and is second behind Eugenio Suárez, among qualifiers, with his .860 OPS. This is Ramírez’s seventh All-Star selection in what could very well be a Hall of Fame career.

Runner-up: Alex Bregman, Red Sox

Designated hitter: Ryan O’Hearn, Orioles (1st starter election)

O’Hearn has been the biggest bright spot in what’s been a down year for the Orioles. Three years ago, O’Hearn struggled to the tune of a .611 OPS in what would be his final year with the Royals. After two strong seasons with the Orioles in 2023-24, O’Hearn has taken it up a notch this year with a .295/.383/.471 line, good for an .854 OPS that is fifth among qualified designated hitters and tops in the AL.

Runner-up: Ben Rice, Yankees

Outfield: Aaron Judge, Yankees (7th starter election)

What more can really be said about Judge’s season and career? Even with his “slump” in June (a .967 OPS), Judge is hitting a remarkable .358/.466/.722 with an MLB-leading 6.5 WAR a little more than halfway through the season. Judge has already had two all-time seasons in 2021 (11.1 WAR and 62 homers) and 2024 (11.3 WAR and 58 home runs) that resulted in AL Most Valuable Player Awards. He could very well add a third this season in what could end up being a career-best year. This is Judge’s fifth straight selection as an All-Star Game starter, and his seventh in his past eight chances.

Outfield: Riley Greene, Tigers (1st starter election)

Greene has blossomed into the best Tigers player not named Tarik Skubal and is a key reason why Detroit has the American League’s best record. The 24-year-old ranks in the top 10 among outfielders in OPS (.909), slugging (.559), home runs (21) and WAR (3.0). He now has two straight All-Star selections, just six years after the Tigers made him the No. 5 overall pick in the Draft.

Outfield Javier Báez, Tigers (3rd starter election)

Báez’s resurgence has been one of the best stories in all of baseball this season. After struggling mightily in his first three seasons in Detroit from 2022-24, Báez has bounced back with a .783 OPS and 1.8 WAR, putting him on track for his best season since 2021. This is Báez’s third career All-Star selection at a third different position, with his first two coming at second base (2018) and shortstop (2019). He and Greene are the first Tigers outfielders selected as starters since Magglio Ordonez in 2007.

Runners-up: Mike Trout, Angels; Steven Kwan, Guardians

National League

Catcher: Will Smith, Dodgers (1st starter election)

This makes three straight All-Star seasons for Smith, who's long been one of the best offensive catchers in baseball but has never performed quite like this before. He leads the National League in batting average (.320) and on-base percentage (.418), and given his .532 SLG, he is on pace to be the first catcher with a qualifying .300/.400/.500 season since Buster Posey in 2012.

Runner-up: Carson Kelly, Cubs

First base: Freddie Freeman, Dodgers (5th starter election)

Make it seven in a row for this Dodger. The last time the National League fielded an All-Star roster without Freeman was in 2017, and he's back in the starting lineup for the second time in a Dodgers uniform. No World Series hangover here -- he's picked up right where he left off last season, hitting .308 with 21 doubles, 10 homers and 43 RBIs.

Runner-up: Pete Alonso, Mets

Second base: Ketel Marte, D-backs (3rd starter election)

Marte has been the most valuable second baseman in baseball, and at least based on offensive performance, it's not close. Out from April 5 through May 1 with a hamstring injury, Marte has only played 59 games but already has 17 home runs. Among primary second basemen with at least 200 PA on the year, he leads in just about every major category including fWAR (3.0), average (.296), OBP (.400) and SLG (.583).

Runner-up: Tommy Edman, Dodgers

Shortstop: Francisco Lindor, Mets (1st starter election)

A personal milestone and a triumphant return, as Lindor made four straight All-Star appearances with Cleveland from 2016-19 and hasn't been back since. Although his numbers lag behind the ones that made him the runner-up in 2024 NL MVP voting, he ranks second among NL shortstops in fWAR (3.0, behind Trea Turner) and home runs (16, behind Elly De La Cruz).

Runner-up: Mookie Betts, Dodgers

Third base: Manny Machado, Padres (4th starter election)

As per usual, the 32-year-old Machado is anchoring the Padres’ lineup, hitting a steady .293 with 13 home runs and 47 RBIs. In 14 seasons, he's put together quite a diverse resume; he's won the fan vote in both leagues, both at third base (2016, '22, '25) and at shortstop ('18), and with this year's fan selection he is officially a seven-time All-Star.

Runner-up: Max Muncy, Dodgers

Designated hitter: Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers (5th starter election)

Already a starter by virtue of being the National League's top vote-getter, Ohtani is having another one of his typically outrageous seasons at the plate, currently leading all Major Leaguers with 83 runs scored (in 84 games) and pacing the NL in home runs (30), slugging (.637), OPS (1.024) and OPS+ (183). Unfortunately, given that he's still working on getting back to full strength after undergoing elbow surgery in 2023, it'll be at least another year before he has a chance to be his league's starting P/DH like he was for the AL squad in 2021.

Outfield: Ronald Acuña Jr., Braves (5th starter election)

Acuña tore his left ACL in May 2024 and as a result didn't make his 2025 season debut until May 23, not that you can tell. In 35 games, he's hitting .350 with a 1.076 OPS (199 OPS+) and he has nine home runs, one of which came on the first pitch he'd seen in the Majors in almost a year. This is the fifth time Acuña has won the fan vote -- bearing in mind there have only been seven All-Star Games since he debuted in 2018 -- but this year's should be extra special, since it's coming in front of his home crowd.

Outfield: Pete Crow-Armstrong, Cubs (1st starter election)

The Cubs have cooled a bit in recent weeks, but their hot start clearly boosted everyone's profile, as they'll have two outfielders starting at the All-Star Game for the first time since 2008 (Alfonso Soriano and Kosuke Fukudome). As dynamic and toolsy as advertised, Crow-Armstrong has already made 2025 his first career 20-homer, 20-steal season. With elite speed, outstanding defense and lefty pop, it's not hugely surprising fan voters wanted to see more of the Cubs' current phenom.

Outfield: Kyle Tucker, Cubs (1st starter election)

Tucker, acquired from the Astros in December, is a three-time American League All-Star but had never won a fan vote -- until now. The 28-year-old has made an excellent first impression in Chicago, hitting .290/.393/.533 with 17 home runs and 20 stolen bases, just about keeping pace with his center fielder, Crow-Armstrong. Tucker's 4.0 fWAR is also tied with his teammate for the lead among NL outfielders, while trailing Judge (6.3) across MLB.

Runners-up: Teoscar Hernández, Dodgers; Juan Soto, Mets; Andy Pages, Dodgers
