Pittsburgh\u2019s Paul Skenes, Milwaukee\u2019s Jacob Misiorowski and the Dodgers\u2019 two-way star Shohei Ohtani all could miss All-Star mound appearances because of starts next weekend, while four players from the World Series champion Dodgers were voted to the National League\u2019s starting lineup.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout earned his 12th All-Star selection and first since 2023 based on the second round of fan balloting announced Saturday by Major League Baseball. Trout, who grew up near Philadelphia in Millville, New Jersey, was voted by fans to start for the 11th time and hopes to return from a strained right hamstring sustained June 17.<\/p>\n

First baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr., among four All-Stars from the American League champion Toronto Blue Jays, said he will skip the July 14 game at Philadelphia\u2019s Citizens Bank Park to rest a bad back that has bothered him for much of the season.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose four days will be great,\u201d Guerrero said through a translator, \u201cto come back strong in the second half.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge, elected to his eighth start, will miss the game because of a broken rib that has sidelined him since May.<\/p>\n

Skenes, the NL starter in the last two All-Star Games, is scheduled to pitch for Pittsburgh on Tuesday and Sunday. The 24-year-old right-hander is 0-6 in his last nine starts, dropping to 6-8 with a 3.62 ERA for the season. He was voted in by players, as was Misiorowski.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo be honest, probably a little surprised,\u201d Skenes said of his selection.<\/p>\n

Misiorowski, averaging 100.4 mph with his fastball and leading the major leagues with a 1.47 ERA, was an All-Star last year after just five big league games. He also is scheduled to start Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re looking for September, October,\u201d he said Friday. \u201cIt sucks – obviously I want to throw in a game like that – but so be it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ohtani, a three-time, two-way All-Star and six-time pick overall, is unlikely to pitch in the game because of a right biceps issue that will push his last prebreak start to next weekend, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said.<\/p>\n

Freddie Freeman became a 10-time All-Star when the L.A. first baseman was announced Sunday with Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy and outfielder Andy Pages as winners in the second phase on fan voting, which ran from June 29 to Thursday. They joined Ohtani, who won the NL designated hitter spot by finishing with the most votes in the initial round of fan selection announced June 25.<\/p>\n

In the closest race, Pages edged Atlanta\u2019s Michael Harris II by fewer than 5,000 votes for the third NL outfield spot.<\/p>\n

Four Dodgers were elected to start for the first time since Steve Garvey, Davey Lopes, Bill Russell and Reggie Smith in 1980. World Series MVP Yoshinobu Yamamoto was picked for the NL pitching staff by Major League Baseball with one of its six selections, giving the Dodgers five or more All-Stars for the seventh straight time.<\/p>\n

Twenty-six first-time All-Stars were among the 64 players picked, including four rookies: Cleveland second baseman Travis Bazzana, Detroit shortstop Kevin McGonigle, Cleveland left-hander Parker Messick and Cincinnati third baseman Sal Stewart.<\/p>\n

McGonigle is the youngest player at 21 and Boston closer Aroldis Chapman, at 38, is the oldest.<\/p>\n

Atlanta and the host Phillies each have five All-Stars.<\/p>\n

Philadelphia outfielder Brandon Marsh was elected to start and will be joined by four fellow Phillies: first baseman Bryce Harper, DH Kyle Schwarber, reliever Jhoan Duran and left-hander Cristopher S\u00e1nchez. Harper was a legend pick added by baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred.<\/p>\n

Atlanta catcher Drake Baldwin and second baseman Ozzie Albies were voted in as starters and will be joined by left-hander Chris Sale, a 10-time All-Star, and closer Raisel Iglesias.<\/p>\n

Toronto has four, with Guerrero joined by second baseman Ernie Clement, who led AL players in the first phase of voting from June 3-25, and pitchers Dylan Cease and Louis Varland.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur fan support is unlike any other team, obviously, because of the country backing you,\u201d said Toronto\u2019s John Schneider, the AL manager. \u201cNot just Canada – I think a lot of baseball people really recognized how those guys play the game.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elected AL starters also include Athletics catcher Shea Langeliers; Kansas City shortstop Bobby Witt Jr.; Tampa Bay third baseman Junior Caminero; Houston designated hitter Yordan Alvarez; and the New York Yankees\u2019 Judge and Minnesota\u2019s Byron Buxton in the outfield.<\/p>\n

Guerrero will be replaced in the starting lineup by the Athletics\u2019 Nick Kurtz and Judge by Yankees teammate Cody Bellinger. Replacements are based on player, manager and coach voting.<\/p>\n

Bellinger earned his third All-Star selection but first since 2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s going to be cool. Last time I had no kids or family or anything,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

NL starters also include New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto and Washington shortstop C.J. Abrams.<\/p>\n

MLB had, in previous years, announced starters first, then pitchers and reserves several days later.<\/p>\n

Other AL pitchers elected by players include Boston\u2019s Chapman, Tampa Bay\u2019s Drew Rasmussen, Minnesota\u2019s Joe Ryan, Yankees\u2019 Cam Schlittler, Cleveland\u2019s Cade Smith. Other NL pitchers voted in by players include Cincinnati\u2019s Chase Burns and San Diego\u2019s Mason Miller.<\/p>\n
