How to watch New York Mets games without cable: Video
Where can you watch Mets games when you don’t have cable? If you cut the cord, here’s how you can still stream them this season.
NEW YORK — The Mets will be well-represented during the All-Star festivities in their rival’s ballpark in Atlanta next week.
After Francisco Lindor was voted by the fans as the National League’s starting shortstop, Major League Baseball announced Sunday night that Pete Alonso and Edwin Diaz would be joining him as reserves.
Here is how the latest Mets’ trio earned their spots among the National League All-Stars:
Pete Alonso
It will be the fourth starting All-Star selection for Alonso, who also received a nod as a rookie in 2019.
Entering Sunday afternoon’s game, the Mets’ first baseman was slashing .290/.382/.547 with 20 home runs, 73 RBI and an NL-best 25 doubles. Alonso’s RBI total was tied for second in the National League, trailing only the Cubs’ Seiya Suzuki.
Alonso was a finalist in the second phase of voting but was outvoted by the Dodgers’ Freddie Freeman.
Alonso has also competed in the Home Run Derby five times, taking home the crown during the 2019 and 2021 seasons.
Edwin Diaz
The Mets’ closer has returned to his lockdown form so far in the 2025 season.
Diaz is 18 of 19 in his save opportunities, while pitching to a 1.80 ERA in 35 innings with 53 strikeouts. He has allowed only one earned run in 25 appearances since April 21.
Diaz will be making his third trip to the All-Star Game after trips in 2022 with the Mets and 2019 as a member of the Mariners.
Juan Soto: All-Star snub?
In his first season with the Mets after signing a record $765 million, the superstar outfielder heated up in the month of June and was a finalist in the second phase of All-Star voting.
Soto earned National League Player of the Month honors for June after batting .322 with 11 home runs, 20 RBI and 25 runs in the third full month of the season.
In the process, Soto, who was batting .231 after May, had elevated his slash line to .267/.401/.514 with 21 home runs, 51 RBI, 65 runs and a league-best 71 walks entering Sunday’s action.
But he won’t be making a fifth All-Star appearance just yet.
