Jose Ramirez was voted as the starter for the AL at third base, but he'll instead sit out the All-Star Game to focus on rest and recovery.

(AP) — Cleveland Guardians third baseman José Ramírez will no longer be playing in the 2025 MLB All-Star Game. Houston third baseman Isaac Paredes was picked Wednesday to replace Ramírez, who had been the starting third baseman. The Guardians said Ramírez wanted “to focus on recovery and preparation for the second half of the season.”
