MLB Faces Backlash for Snubbing Cubs' Seiya Suzuki in NL All-Star Roster
Chicago Cubs right fielder Seiya Suzuki, despite leading MLB in runs batted in and showcasing strong offensive numbers such as 25 home runs and a .263 batting average, was notably excluded from the 2025 National League All-Star roster, sparking widespread fan criticism. Suzuki's omission was particularly controversial as he outperformed selected designated hitters like Kyle Schwarber in several key statistics, fueling debate about the fairness of the selection process. Suzuki responded to the snub with a succinct statement indicating he will not participate in the All-Star weekend, effectively ending speculation about his potential addition to the roster. Meanwhile, Suzuki continues to deliver consistent performance, highlighted by his recent streak of hits and contribution to the Cubs' offensive success, including key RBIs in an 11-0 victory over the Cardinals. Other Cubs players such as Carson Kelly and Cardinals' Nolan Gorman have also made notable contributions this season, with Kelly hitting a home run in a recent game and Gorman demonstrating power despite a lower batting average. The All-Star game, scheduled for July 15, will be managed by Dodgers' Dave Roberts and Yankees' Aaron Boone, but Suzuki's exclusion remains a focal point of fan and media discussion.
