The starters, pitchers and reserves for the 2026 All-Star Game were announced last week, but those rosters often change as players drop out due to injury or other factors and are replaced by new players.
We'll be keeping track of any replacements that are named before the 96th MLB All-Star Game presented by Mastercard on July 14, with any new players added below when they are announced.
July 7: 1B Willson Contreras (BOS) replaces Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (TOR) on AL roster
Contreras is having arguably the best season of his career. With 20 homers, he appears certain to pass his career high of 24. Meanwhile, his .920 OPS would be a career high and ranks third among AL first basemen, while his .284 average entering Tuesday was best among that group. Guerrero earned his sixth career selection when he was elected as a starter by the fan vote, but said he would decline his selection so he can go home to Tampa, Fla., and take the four days to rest his ailing lower back. Nick Kurtz (ATH) will start at first base for the AL.
