The 2025 MLB All-Star Game isn't just a celebration of the sport's biggest stars—it's a stage for baseball history in the making. As the league's best gather in Atlanta, several players are on pace to shatter records and redefine greatness. Here’s a closer look at the stars chasing historic milestones:

Cal Raleigh: Redefining the Catcher Position

Cal Raleigh, affectionately known as "The Big Dumper," is having a season for the ages. With 38 home runs through 96 games, he’s on track to break Aaron Judge’s American League record of 62 homers set in 2022. Raleigh is also challenging records for most home runs by a switch hitter, primary catcher, and highest catcher WAR in a season. His dominance at the plate, especially against left-handed pitching, has made him a cornerstone of the Seattle Mariners' lineup.

Shohei Ohtani: A Run-Scoring Machine

Shohei Ohtani continues to dazzle with his dual-threat capabilities. With 89 runs scored in 94 games, he’s on pace to join an elite club of players who’ve scored 150 runs in a season. Ohtani’s power-hitting and leadoff prowess have made him a nightmare for opposing pitchers, and his MVP-caliber performance keeps him in the conversation as one of the greatest players of all time.

Aaron Judge: Chasing Babe Ruth

Aaron Judge is on track to record 435 total bases this season, a feat not seen since Jimmie Foxx in 1932. Judge’s aggressive approach at the plate, combined with his ability to hit for both power and average, has kept him in the hunt for one of the most impressive seasons in MLB history.

Paul Skenes: Dominance on the Mound

Paul Skenes, the Pittsburgh Pirates' ace, is flirting with a sub-2.00 ERA for the second consecutive season. His ability to manage his dominant arsenal and pitch efficiently has made him one of the most feared pitchers in the league. If he maintains his current pace, Skenes could join an exclusive group of pitchers with multiple sub-2.00 ERA seasons before turning 25.

Pete Crow-Armstrong: Power and Speed

Pete Crow-Armstrong is on pace for a 40-homer, 50-steal season, a feat that would cement his place among the game’s elite. His combination of power, speed, and defensive prowess has made him one of the most exciting young players in baseball.

Junior Caminero: A Rising Star

Junior Caminero, in his age-21 season, is on track to hit 40 home runs, joining the likes of Eddie Mathews and Ronald Acuña Jr. His quick bat and ability to crush fastballs have made him a key contributor for the Tampa Bay Rays.

Corbin Carroll: The Complete Player

Corbin Carroll is chasing a unique milestone: 40 home runs, 20 triples, and 20 stolen bases in a single season. His speed, power, and hustle make him a constant threat on the basepaths and at the plate.

Bobby Witt Jr.: Doubles Machine

Bobby Witt Jr. is on pace for 53 doubles, a mark that would challenge Hal McRae’s franchise record. His aggressive style and ability to turn singles into doubles have made him a top MVP candidate in the American League.

Kyle Tucker: All-Around Brilliance

Kyle Tucker is on track to join the exclusive 30-homer, 40-steal, 120-run club. His consistency at the plate and on the basepaths has made him a key player for the Chicago Cubs.

Byron Buxton: Perfect on the Basepaths

Byron Buxton is 17-for-17 in stolen base attempts this season, putting him in position to join the elite group of players who’ve swiped at least 20 bases without being caught. His speed and health have been key to his success in 2025.

As these stars take the field at Truist Park, they’re not just playing for the All-Star Game—they’re chasing history.
