Juan Soto Named All-Star Starter After Previous Snub

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

New York Mets left fielder Juan Soto has been selected as a starter for the 96th MLB All-Star Game, which will be held on July 14 at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. This selection comes after he was not chosen as an All-Star last year.

The New York Mets’ outfielder was named to his fifth MLB All-Star Game Saturday night when starters were announced live on FOX. Soto is the sole player selected to represent the Mets at the Midsummer Classic.

According to Soto, being snubbed in 2025 served as motivation. “I just let it kind of motivate me,” he said. He did not elaborate further on how the previous omission affected his performance or preparation.
