Overview
- Major League Baseball published the full All‑Star rosters on Saturday for the July 14 game at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia.
- The selections follow fan voting for starters, ballots from players/managers/coaches for most reserves, and league fills that include Commissioner Rob Manfred’s 'Legend Pick' of Bryce Harper.
- Twenty-six players are first‑time All‑Stars, including four rookies, while the Braves, Dodgers and Phillies each placed five players on the rosters.
- Early availability changes are already in place: Nick Kurtz will start at first base for the American League in place of Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Aaron Judge is confirmed to miss the game with a rib injury, and Mike Trout remains uncertain as he rehabs a hamstring.
- Managers will name the All‑Star starting pitchers next week and further roster moves are likely because teams may rest position players or withhold pitchers due to regular‑season starts, a dynamic that will shape final lineups and fan expectations.
