MLB All-Star Game snubs: George Springer, Juan Soto, Randy Arozarena headline this year's snubs

The rosters for the 2025 MLB All-Star Game were unveiled Sunday .

There are always one or two or 10 names notably absent from the rosters.

Fans react even more strongly to those names than the players who actually get invited.

Some of this frustration will end up being temporary, and injuries and rotation schedules will require more All-Stars.

Zach McKinstry is this year ’s Willi Castro , a do-everything superutilityman who provides immense value to his manager with his versatility.

Juan Soto has been on an absolute tear since his uncharacteristic swoon in May , but it appears his recent heater was too little, too late for his peers to vote him in or the league office to include him.

Julio Rodriguez is still a very good baseball player, but his offensive output has waned to a stunning degree this year .

Houston Astros' Framber Valdez is in excellent position to be the top starting pitcher on the free-agent market this winter .

Rangers' Nathan Eovaldi has been as effective as ever in his age-35 season.

Jhoan Duran is the Minnesota Twins' top save pitcher.
