Hunter Goodman Named to the 2026 National League All-Star Team

DENVER – Major League Baseball announced today the full rosters for the 2026 All-Star Game, including Rockies catcher Hunter Goodman, his second consecutive All-Star selection.
The 26-year-old is one of two Rockies catchers in franchise history to be named to the NL team, along with Elias Díaz (2023), and the first Rockie to make back-to-back All-Star Game rosters since 2019 when Nolan Arenado (2015-19), Charlie Blackmon (2017-19) and Trevor Story (2018-19) all appeared in consecutive games.
Entering today, Goodman is tied for second in the Majors with 27 home runs. Those 27 home runs are also tied with Larry Walker (2001) for the most by a Rockies hitter prior to the All-Star break in franchise history. He is the third primary catcher to log at least 27 homers pre-All-Star break (since 1933), alongside Cal Raleigh (38, 2025) and Johnny Bench (28, 1970). Goodman ranks first among all catchers in home runs (1st), total bases (172), runs scored (56), slugging percentage (.550) and extra-base hits (41). Among NL catchers ranks second in hits (44) and third in RBI (50).
In June, Goodman’s 13 home runs were the most in the Majors and the second player in franchise history to have at least 13 home runs in a single month along with Troy Tulowitzki (15 HR, Sept. 2010). He became the fourth career primary catcher with at least 13 home runs in a calendar month, joining Atlanta’s Ozzie Virgil (13 HR, May 1987), New York Mets’ Gary Carter (13 HR, Sept. 1985), and New York Giants’ Walker Cooper (13 HR, June 1947).
The 2025 Silver Slugger winner debuted for the Rockies in 2023 and is in his second season as a full-time catcher. The Arlington, Tenn., native was selected by the Rockies in the fifth round of the 2021 First-Year Player Draft following three seasons at the University of Memphis (2019-21).
Goodman will be available to the media in the Rockies interview room following the conclusion of today’s game.
