Major League Baseball on Monday launched the ballot for the official All-MLB Team, which recognizes and commemorates the top performances by players during the 2026 regular season. The selections for the All-MLB Team, which was established in 2019, will be announced on Nov. 11 during the fourth annual MLB Awards from The Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. Additional MLB awards to be unveiled in Las Vegas during the live show on MLB Network will include the Hank Aaron Award winners; Comeback Players of the Year; Mariano Rivera and Trevor Hoffman Relievers of the Year; Edgar Martinez Outstanding Designated Hitter of the Year; MLB Executive of the Year; and more.
Beginning today and continuing through Friday, October 9, at 2 p.m. (ET), fans may vote for their 2026 All-MLB choices at mlb.com/allmlb each day. In addition, the ballot will be available in Spanish at mlb.com/todomlb. Fans voting on MLB.com and a decorated panel of media members, broadcasters, former players and other officials throughout the game will have equal say in determining the first-team and second-team choices who comprise the 2026 All-MLB Team.
Fans and panelists will vote for their choices at catcher, first base, second base, third base, shortstop, three outfielders (without regard for left/center/right) and designated hitter, along with five starting pitchers and two relief pitchers on both the first and second teams. All choices will be based on the 2026 regular season, without regard for American League or National League affiliation. The list of nominees that fans and panelists will choose amongst accompanies this press release.
MLB Network will preview and analyze the nominees at each position with Adnan Virk, Jake Peavy and Steve Phillips on the 2026 All-MLB Team Nominee Show tonight at 7 p.m. (ET). Following the 2026 All-MLB Team Nominee Show, MLB Network will air the 2026 MiLB Awards Show at 8 p.m. (ET).
Among the 2026 nominees are 91 All-Stars, including 62 players who appeared on 2026 All-Star rosters; 15 rookies; 65 players age 27-or-younger, including 49 players age 26-or-younger, 33 players age 25-or-younger, 20 players age 24-or-younger, and 10 players age 23-or-younger; 45 internationally born players hailing from nine countries and territories outside the 50 United States; seven Most Valuable Player Award winners; five Cy Young Award winners; 13 Rookie of the Year Award winners; two Reliever of the Year Award winners; five batting champions; and 44 previous All-MLB Team honorees, including 17 members of the 2025 All-MLB Team (nine first-team selections, eight second-team selections), 13 two-time honorees, five three-time honorees and five five-time honorees.
Los Angeles Dodgers teammates Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman and Shohei Ohtani are joined by Houston’s Yordan Alvarez and New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto as the five players to have already been honored as a first-team or second-team selection in five seasons. Ohtani, who has captured a total of eight awards in his five winning seasons, has been selected to either team in each of his last five seasons after earning first-team honors as a designated hitter and second-team honors as a starting pitcher in 2021; first-team honors as a starting pitcher and second-team honors as a designated hitter in 2022; first-team honors in both categories in 2023; and first-team honors as a designated hitter in 2024 and 2025. Six players are aiming for an All-MLB selection in a third consecutive season, including Ketel Marte of the Arizona Diamondbacks; Paul Skenes of the Pittsburgh Pirates; Tarik Skubal of the Dodgers; Soto; Zack Wheeler of the Philadelphia Phillies; and Bobby Witt Jr. of the Kansas City Royals.
The nine All-MLB Team first-team honorees from 2025 featured on the 2026 ballot include the aforementioned Marte, Ohtani, Skenes, Skubal, Soto and Witt, along with Aroldis Chapman of the Boston Red Sox; Jhoan Duran of the Philadelphia Phillies; and Yoshinobu Yamamoto of the Dodgers.
