Soto's Comeback Shines in All-Star Spotlight | New York Mets News

Juan Soto is headed to his fifth All-Star Game, this time as a Mets representative — the only player from the team selected. After being snubbed last year, the outfielder says that rejection fueled his explosive season, where he’s now leading the National League in on-base plus slugging and boasts the second-best OPS in all of baseball. His performance has been called “otherworldly” by the interim manager, and Soto credits the motivation for his improved mindset. He also thanked fans in the Dominican Republic and New York for their unwavering support. With starters chosen by fans and reserves by players and officials, Soto is thrilled to join baseball’s elite — and proud of his Mets teammates’ relentless work ethic, even amid team struggles. This will be his fourth different team to represent in the All-Star Game.
