2024 MLB ASG Starting Lineups
| Paul Skenes | SP | Corbin Burnes |
| William Contreras | C | Adley Rutschman |
| Bryce Harper | 1B | Vladimir Guerrero Jr |
| Ketel Marte | 2B | Marcus Semien |
| Alec Bohm | 3B | Jose Ramirez |
| Trea Turner | SS | Gunnar Henderson |
| Christian Yelich | LF | Steven Kwan |
| Teoscar Hernandez | CF | Aaron Judge |
| Jurickson Profar | RF | Juan Soto |
| Shohei Ohtani | DH | Yordan Alvarez |
Pittsburgh rookie sensation Paul Skenes is getting the nod to start on the mound for the National League, becoming the first rookie starter since Hideo Nomo in 1995. Nomo, of course, was already 27 by the time he come to the majors from Japan. Skenes, by contrast, is still just 22 and was the first-overall pick in the 2023 MLB draft.
Skenes has fully lived up to the hype in his first season, going 6-0 in his first 11 starts with a 1.90 ERA and 0.92 WHIP.
While Skenes doesn’t quite qualify for the MLB leaderboards yet, among pitchers with at least 60 innings under their belt, he sits second in the MLB in ERA, first in xFIP, second in K%, and T1 in K-to-BB ratio.
Starting opposite Skenes will be 2021 NL Cy Young-winner Corbin Burnes, who is 9-4 with a 2.43 ERA and 1.045 WHIP in his first season with Baltimore.
Burnes is third among qualified pitchers in ERA (2.43) this season, but just 15th in xFIP (3.35).
MLB All-Star Game Predictions
The AL has a slightly more-potent lineup on paper: nine of the top 13 in the MLB in OPS hail from the American League. But I expect the National League to have a pretty sizable advantage on the mound. Burnes is hit-and-miss at the moment – and honestly Tarik Skubal or Garrett Crochet should be getting the start – I will gladly back a combination of Skenes, Chris Sale, Zack Wheeler, Tyler Glasnow, and Reynaldo Lopez against the AL’s staff.
On the whole, I expect another low-scoring MLB All-Star Game. Six of the last seven ASGs have stayed under 7.5 runs (only an 8-6 AL win in 2018 breaks the trend) and the average total over that span is just 5.86 runs per game.
MLB ASG picks:
- National League moneyline (+102)
- Under 7.5 runs (-120)
