The first unveiling of the first round of fan voting for the All-Star Game showcases the popularity of the Dodgers, as two-time defending champions. Four Dodgers have the most votes at their position, and three others are in line to advance to the second round of voting.
Shohei Ohtani leads all MLB players with 1,165,133 votes thus far, while Freddie Freeman leads all National League first basemen, Max Muncy leads at third base, and Andy Pages leads all NL outfielders.
NL designated hitter
- Shohei Ohtani 1,165,133
- Kyle Schwarber 820,009
- Dominic Smith 371,508
Ohtani has been voted by fans
to start at designated hitter in each of the last five seasons, including in both 2024 and 2025 with the Dodgers.
NL first basemen
- Freddie Freeman 870,606
- Matt Olson 802,848
- Bryce Harper 651,792
Freeman has played in the last seven All-Star Games with five starts, including in 2023 and 2025 for Los Angeles. After a slow start this season, Freeman has been hot the last four weeks and is now hitting .275/.365/.473 with a 133 wRC+.
NL third basemen
- Max Muncy 941,218
- Alec Bohm 386,425
- Nolan Alrenado 363,091
- Austin Riley 353,394
Muncy leads all National League third basemen in home runs (16), runs scored (46), on-base percentage (.371), slugging percentage (.532), OPS (.903), wRC+ (151), Outs Above Average (+5), and FanGraphs WAR (2.9)
He was an All-Star in 2019 and 2021 and started at designated hitter in his second midsummer classic, before the DH starter was selected by fans. The last Dodger to start an All-Star Game at third base was Ron Cey in 1977.
NL outfielders
- Andy Pages 800,496
- Ronald Acuña Jr. 693,472
- Brandon Marsh 668,191
- Michael Harris II 635,473
- Teoscar Hernández 507,625
- Jordan Walker 437,071
Pages is tied with Walker for most RBI (56) among NL outfielders and is fifth among NL outfielders with 2.4 fWAR (2.4), hitting .273/.319/.498 with 124 wRC+ with 13 Defensive Runs Saved.
In addition to Teoscar Hernández, who is expected to miss a month with a hamstring strain, both Will Smith and Mookie Betts are in line to at least advance to the second round of voting despite slow starts to their seasons.
NL catcher
- Drake Baldwin 972,813
- Will Smith 682,883
- J.T. Realmuto 446,915
Smith has been an All-Star in each of the last three seasons, starting in 2025. This year he’s hitting 249/.338/.382 with six home runs and a 105 wRC+. He’s currently on the injured list with neck inflammation.
NL shortstop
- CJ Abrams 579,796
- Mookie Betts 567,566
- Elly De La Cruz 473,485
- Trea Turner 414,652
Betts hasn’t hit much at all this season, and missed five weeks with an oblique strain. He’s also one of the games biggest stars and a surefire future Hall of Famer who’s an eight-time All-Star, so it’s not all that surprising that he’s among the top at the position in fan voting.
The first round of fan voting runs through 9 a.m. PT on Thursday, June 25, with the top two at each position plus the top six outfielders advancing to the second phase of voting. The player with the most first-round votes in each league automatically is named a starter at their position, without needing the second phase of voting. Ohtani was the top NL vote-getter last year, for instance.
