The decision not to include the outstanding Dominican outfielder has generated a wave of criticism and questioning.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Numbers That Speak for Themselves<\/h2>\n\n\nJuan Soto, a key figure for the New York Mets, has demonstrated exceptional performance this season. His statistics reflect his impact on the game: 21 home runs, 51 RBIs, an on-base percentage (OBP) of .396, and an OPS of .904. These numbers position him as one of the offensive leaders in the National League.\n\nRecognition for his performance came with the Player of the Month award for June, a prize that crowned his notable offensive recovery after a more discreet start to the season.\n\n<h2>The Omission That Generates Controversy<\/h2>\n\nDespite his impressive numbers and the support of the fans, neither the public&#8217;s votes nor the consideration of the coaching staff were enough to secure his place on the All-Star roster, not even as a reserve.\n\nThis situation has sparked an intense debate on social media and sports programs, where the question &#8220;What more should Soto have done to be in the All-Star Game?&#8221; resonates strongly.\n\nThe controversy is exacerbated when comparing Soto&#8217;s statistics with those of other selected players, whose numbers are lower. This has led many to question the voting and selection system.\n\nJuan Soto will now have to focus on maintaining his level in the second half of the season. Meanwhile, Dominican fans express their disappointment at what they consider one of the biggest omissions in the history of the stellar classic.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Santo Domingo.- The surprising absence of Juan Soto in the 2025 MLB All-Star Game has ignited the debate among baseball fans and experts.
