2026 NL All-Star team


Pete Crow-Armstrong authored a historic five-tool season that belongs on the shelf next to the greatest hits of Mantle, Mays, and Trout. The Cubs center fielder was arguably the best hitter, baserunner, and fielder in the National League. He is the easy pick as my Player of the Year. Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski was the league’s top pitcher and a hardcore thrower, with a 1.80 ERA and 252 strikeouts. The Padres, Brewers and Phillies each land three players on my All-Star team. San Diego positions right fielder Fernando Tatis Jr., reliever Mason Miller, and first baseman Ty France on the team.
