Red Sox Name Three First-Season All-Stars for 2025 MLB Game

News summary

The 2025 MLB All-Star Game will feature three Boston Red Sox players—Garrett Crochet, Aroldis Chapman, and Alex Bregman—all selected in their first season with the team. Crochet, who leads the majors in innings pitched and strikeouts, earned his second consecutive All-Star nod after being acquired in a blockbuster trade, while Chapman made his eighth career appearance, marking a return to the Midsummer Classic since 2021. Bregman, despite being on the injured list with a quad strain, secured his third All-Star selection, his first since 2019, after signing a significant free-agent deal with the Red Sox. These selections highlight the success of chief baseball officer Craig Breslow's offseason acquisitions, with all three players voted in by their peers. Meanwhile, Cincinnati Reds pitcher Andrew Abbott was notably snubbed from the National League All-Star team despite outperforming Chicago Cubs' Matthew Boyd in several advanced metrics, emphasizing a selection bias toward innings pitched. Abbott's exclusion contrasts with the Red Sox's recognition of new talent and underscores differing approaches to All-Star selections across teams.
