2026 MLB All-Star Game: Full rosters unveiled as Dodgers, Braves, Phillies lead selections


The full rosters are set for the 2026 MLB All-Star Game. This year’s Midsummer Classic will be played Tuesday, July 14, at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. The All-Star Game will, as is tradition, close out a mini-celebration that includes the 2026 MLB Draft (July 11-12), the Futures Game (July 12), the Home Run Derby (July 13).

All-Star Game starters were determined by fan vote. Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani and Blue Jays infielder Ernie Clement received the most votes in their respective leagues, allowing them to skip the second phase of voting entirely. The rest of the roster was determined by player voting and selections by the commissioner’s office.

At the team level, the Dodgers, Braves and Phillies lead all comers with five All-Stars apiece. In the AL, the Yankees, Blue Jays and Rays top the circuit with four selections. As is always the case these days, each of MLB’s 30 teams has at least one All-Star representative. 

The National League will be managed by Dodgers skipper Dave Roberts, a nice bonus after leading his squad to last year’s World Series title. The American League, meanwhile, will be helmed by Blue Jays manager John Schneider. Each manager will select his team’s starting pitcher in the coming days.

Now, onto the respective squads.
