MLB All-Star voting: Vladimir Guerrero Jr. surges while Aaron Judge, Shohei Ohtani maintain leads
Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani still lead their respective leagues in voting for the MLB All-Star Game, but other players have climbed the rankings, MLB announced on Monday. With phase 1 of voting ending on Thursday, Judge's 2,669,483 votes lead the American League, while Ohtani leads the National League with 2,521,718 votes. But the AL has seen some movement since last week: Blue Jays star Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has made a push, overtaking Paul Goldschmidt in first-base voting (1,192,604 votes to 1,118,501), while Tigers utilityman Javy Báez has overtaken Mike Trout and Steven Kwan in the outfield. Advertisement On the NL side, the Dodgers are still dominating alongside Ohtani, with Freddie Freeman and Will Smith accumulating over 2 million votes and Teoscar Hernández tallying 1.3 million. But Braves star Ronald Acuña Jr. climbed two spots to rank fourth overall in the NL outfield behind Pete Crow-Armstrong, Hernández and Kyle Tucker. Ohtani and Judge will likely bypass the second phase of voting, assuming they still have the highest number of votes in their respective leagues. Here are the current leaders in MLB All-Star voting by position: American League C: Cal Raleigh, Mariners (1,901,389) 1B: Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Blue Jays (1,192,604) 2B: Gleyber Torres, Tigers (1,133,888) 3B: José Ramírez, Guardians (1,780,631) SS: Jacob Wilson, Athletics (1,120,791) OF: Javier Báez, Tigers (901,969) OF: Riley Greene, Tigers (1,370,098) OF: Aaron Judge, Yankees (2,699,483) DH: Ryan O'Hearn, Orioles (937,205) National League C: Will Smith, Dodgers (2,099,944) 1B: Freddie Freeman, Dodgers (2,095,672) 2B: Ketel Marte, Diamondbacks (1,561,235) 3B: Manny Machado, Padres (1,683,022) SS: Francisco Lindor, Mets (1,641,053) OF: Teoscar Hernández, Dodgers (1,366,537) OF: Pete Crow-Armstrong, Cubs (2,005,630) OF: Kyle Tucker, Cubs (1,219,866) DH: Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers (2,521,718) Advertisement Judge remains the only player representing the 2024 AL champions in the starting lineup, while the AL-leading Tigers have three representatives in Báez, Greene and Torres. On the NL side, the Chicago Cubs trail the Dodgers' four players with two: Tucker boasts 1,219,866 votes while Crow-Armstrong has 2,005,630, days after he joined the 20/20 club (20 homers and 20 stolen bases) in historic fashion. The next phase of voting will start at 12 p.m. ET on June 30 and end at the same time on July 2, with the starters announced later that day. The final rosters will be announced on Sunday, July 6, with the MLB All-Star Game played at Atlanta's Truist Park on July 15.
