Who Will Represent the Marlins at the 2025 MLB All-Star Game?
We’re just under a month away from the 2025 MLB All-Star Game (July 15), and unfortunately, the Marlins aren’t getting much love in fan voting. Not a single Marlin currently ranks in the top 10 at any position. Miami enters today 13 games under .500, remains one of the youngest rosters in baseball, and ranks near the bottom in attendance. But despite the struggles, a few young standouts have made a strong case for All-Star recognition—if only the process wasn’t driven so heavily by fan votes.
Reminder: Every MLB team must have at least one All-Star representative. Rosters will be filled out after fan voting concludes.
All-Star FAQ: How players are selected
Dane Myers – OF
Myers has quietly put together a breakout campaign and should be the leading candidate to represent the Marlins. A true five-tool player, he’s showing off elite defense, solid power, and speed. Myers has swiped eight bags and owns a 136 OPS+ (league average is 100). He ranks in the top 70th percentile in defensive run value and has tallied a team-leading 1.4 WAR—even while bouncing in and out of the lineup.
If he qualified, Myers would rank:
-
6th among NL outfielders in OPS
-
1st in batting average
-
3rd in on-base percentage
If he keeps it up through early July, Myers should be Miami’s All-Star.

Kyle Stowers – OF
Stowers has arguably been the Marlins’ most consistent hitter this season. He leads the team in home runs (10), RBIs (34), and triples (3), while posting a strong .803 OPS—top 10 among National League outfielders. His season has had ups and downs (including a walk-off grand slam and a few three-strikeout games), but he’s been a steady presence in the lineup.
If Myers cools off, Stowers might get the nod.
Anthony Bender – RP
Sometimes the All-Star rep comes from the bullpen, and Bender fits that mold perfectly. With a 2.45 ERA and only nine runs allowed over nearly 30 innings, Bender has quietly become one of the most reliable Marlins. His breaking ball is elite, with an 8-run value on Statcast. While he may not be a household name, he’s certainly earned consideration—and could be trade bait for a contender in July.

Heriberto Hernandez – DH/OF
Hernandez has been electric in limited action. Acquired after the Rays released him this winter, he’s slashing .353/.405/.500 with a 148 OPS+. The sample size is small, but his impact has been big. If he keeps hitting and stays in the lineup through June, Hernandez could be a dark horse All-Star—and a fan favorite for years to come.

Final Take
The Marlins are guaranteed at least one All-Star, and while Myers is the best story so far, Stowers and Bender are right behind him. Hernandez is one to watch. Either way, these players represent hope for the franchise’s future—whether they stay to build it or are moved at the deadline.
