Harper Legend Pick Expands NL in 2026 All-Star Rosters
MLB announced the 2026 All-Star rosters for the July 14 game in Philadelphia, with Bryce Harper’s 'Legend Pick' pushing the NL to 33 players and Nick Kurtz starting at first base for the AL after Vladimir Guerrero Jr. rests; starting pitchers will be named by managers next week. The Braves, Dodgers, and Phillies lead with five selections apiece; 26 players are making their first All-Star appearance, including four rookies, and rosters may still change due to injuries or opt-outs.
