2024 MLB All-Star Game rosters and possible lineups and starting pitchers
With the votes in and the bullpens populated, we take a look at the possible lineups and starting pitchers for the 2024 MLB All Star Game.
This year, the 2024 MLB All-Star Game promises to be a showdown for the ages, a battle between the best in the business, where legends are born, and heroes rise.
The rosters, meticulously crafted by votes and whispers in locker rooms, feature a blend of seasoned veterans and electrifying newcomers. The possible lineups, etched in the minds of managers and fans alike, hold the potential for fireworks, each player a fuse ready to be lit.
Here are the full rosters and reserves, with a batting order that we feel works for each league. Of course, this is all changeable, and when you have three or four guys who could hit cleanup, it is never more than just a guess, but it is at least an educated one.
The starting pitchers are yet to be determined, and will come down to who is pitching in the days leading up to and after the weekend, so both leagues are spoiled for choice. We feel that the likely starters are Tyler Anderson for the American League and Paul Skenes for the National, but that is perhaps as much hope as it is divination.
