The full list of 2023 MLB All-Star players on the American and National League rosters — including the starters — and we’ve got some stars having awesome seasons who got left out.
Of course this happens every year in every sport: Inevitably, some talent gets left out for one reason (roster size) or another (in this case, it doesn’t help that every MLB team needs to be represented).
So let’s go over some of the guys left out, and maybe if there’s an injury or any other reason a player has to bow out, this list will provide some good replacements.
Here we go, in no particular order:
1
Fernando Tatis Jr.

Josh Naylor
Naylor snubbed for Vladdy Jr.
— Rengetang (@Rengetang) July 2, 2023
I am biased, but Josh Naylor is one of the biggest All-Star snubs ever.

Wander Franco
Hopefully Wander still makes it to the ASG as a replacement player but man that is baaaaaad
The best young superstar on the best team in the league who is third in all of MLB in the most important metric gets snubbed

Francisco Lindor
You can make an argument that either, if not both, of Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo were snubbed from the All-Star Game. But when your team is as bad as the Mets have been those complaints can and should fall on deaf ears.

Lindor got snubbed for the all star game. Should have made it over Swanson.

David Bednar
Bednar absolutely snubbed though
— Pittsburgh Clothing Company (@PGHClothingCo) July 2, 2023
Does suck Bednar got snubbed. Those who watch him pitch regularly get it. Same time, teams poor performance and lack of save chances hurt.
Still think Bednar or someone else ends up going as a sub.

Lane Thomas
Lane Thomas and Jeimer Candelario are All-Star SNUBS. Both rank ahead of some of the players who were chosen.🌟🌟
— Talk Nats (@TalkNats) July 2, 2023
Lane Thomas definitely got snubbed but the outfield in the NL is stacked

Joe Ryan
Joe Ryan was snubbed so hard what the hell.
— Rated ‘R’ Twins (@RatedRTwins) July 2, 2023
Wait Joe Ryan got snubbed?
