AMERICAN LEAGUEFirst: Salvador Perez, KCSecond: Martín Maldonado, HOUThird: Yasmani Grandal, CWS.
Perez started 5 straight All-Star Games behind the plate for the AL before missing out on the 2019 season while recuperating from Tommy John surgical treatment. The Royals backstop is up against Grandal and Maldonado, two players searching for their first All-Star Game start.

AMERICAN LEAGUEFirst: Vladimir Guerrero Jr., TORSecond: Yuli Gurriel, HOUThird: José Abreu, CWS.
Guerreros impressive breakout moved him to the top of the leaderboard in Phase 1, however with the vote tallies being reset, Abreu and Gurriel have a possibility to surpass heaven Jays slugger.

NATIONAL LEAGUEFirst: Max Muncy, LADSecond: Freddie Freeman, ATLThird: Anthony Rizzo, CHC.
A short injured-list stint due to an oblique stress previously this month wasnt enough to cost Muncy his Phase 1 lead amongst NL very first basemen. In Phase 2, hes challenged by 2 players who have made a combined four All-Star starts. That includes Freeman, the NLs beginning first baseman in 2018 and 19 and the reigning NL MVP.
AMERICAN LEAGUEFirst: Marcus Semien, TORSecond: Jose Altuve, HOUThird: DJ LeMahieu, NYY.
Semien, who moved from shortstop to 2nd base after signing an one-year, $18 million agreement with heaven Jays in the offseason, is trying to find his very first career All-Star nod at age 30. Altuve and LeMahieu have actually been there before, combining for 9 All-Star selections and six starts.
NATIONAL LEAGUEFirst: Ozzie Albies, ATLSecond: Adam Frazier, PITThird: Gavin Lux, LAD.
No matter who wins this race, there will be a novice All-Star starter at second base in the NL. Albies is the just one of the 3 to have made an All-Star Game in the past, making a spot on the NL group as a reserve in 2018.
AMERICAN LEAGUEFirst: Xander Bogaerts, BOSSecond: Bo Bichette, TORThird: Carlos Correa, HOU.
The very same player hasnt started consecutive All-Star Games at shortstop for the AL given that Derek Jeter from 2006-10, and that trend will continue this year, with 19 starter Jorge Polanco not amongst the finalists. While Bogaerts and Correa have started as soon as before– Bogaerts in 2016 and Correa in 17– Bichette is wanting to crash the celebration for the very first time.
NATIONAL LEAGUEFirst: Fernando Tatis Jr., SDSecond: Javier Báez, CHCThird: Brandon Crawford, SF.
Tatis, the Padres 22-year-old super star, continues to turn heads with his vibrant skill set, although he has some stiff competitors in this race from 2 resurgent veterans in Báez and Crawford. That duo was the NLs beginning double-play mix in 2018, when Báez was still at the keystone, and the Cubs infielder got the start at shortstop for the Senior Circuit in 19. Crawford lagged the Dodgers Corey Seager by roughly 56,000 votes in the last standings upgrade on June 21, however he pulled ahead on the final day of the Phase 1 voting to get an area amongst the NL shortstop finalists.
AMERICAN LEAGUEFirst: Rafael Devers, BOSSecond: Alex Bregman, HOUThird: Yoán Moncada, CWS.
Devers ended up 12th in the AL MVP race in 2019 but surprisingly wasnt picked for the All-Star group that year, so hes still looking for his first look at the Midsummer Classic, as is Moncada. Bregman has two All-Star choices and one start under his belt, however his status for this years All-Star Game remains in question due to a left quad stress.

Trout has actually been sidelined since mid-May with a left calf strain, however he was still the leading vote-getter among AL outfielders in Phase 1. The concern now is whether hell be back for the All-Star Game. Trout, Judge and Brantley are the only AL outfield finalists who have made an All-Star team previously.
NATIONAL LEAGUEFirst: Ronald Acuña Jr., ATLSecond: Nick Castellanos, CINThird: Jesse Winker, CINFourth: Mookie Betts, LADFifth: Chris Taylor, LADSixth: Juan Soto, WSHSeventh: Bryce Harper, PHIEighth: Joc Pederson, CHCNinth: Mike Yastrzemski, SF.
In the hunt for his 2nd straight All-Star start, Acuña was the NLs leading vote-getter in Phase 1. Yastrzemski was 16th in the NL outfield standings on June 21, but a late surge made him a finalist. It would be the very first All-Star start for Yaz, along with Castellanos, Pederson, Soto, Taylor and Winker.

Contreras got the beginning nod in each of the previous 2 All-Star Games, snapping a streak of three straight starts for Posey. In Phase 2, hes challenged by two gamers who have actually made a combined four All-Star starts. He last started an All-Star Game in 2016, the same year he won the NL MVP Award.
