Cubs get off to sharp start in second half as All-Star snub Seiya Suzuki delivers 3-run home run against Red Sox
In episode 144 of "Holding Kourt" on Wednesday, Justin Turner's wife, Kourtney, asked him who the major snubs were for the 2025 All-Star game from the Cubs. Turner believes two of his teammates deserved to be in the All-Star game, the first being Seiya Suzuki.
One of the most glaring omissions was Chicago Cubs right fielder Seiya Suzuki, who has recorded a batting average of .263 on the season so far along with 25 home runs and 77 runs batted in with six games to go in the first half of the 2025 season.
After missing out on a trip to the All-Star Game, the designated hitter hit his team-leading 25th homer in a runaway win over the Cardinals.
But Seiya Suzuki is having a monster season as well. He leads the majors with 77 RBI, and belted his 25th home run last night. Yes, DH is deep, and it is hard to argue against Ohtani or Schwarber, but Suzuki feels like a snub.

Yardbarker on MSNJuan Soto, Seiya Suzuki headline biggest MLB All-Star snubsThrough Sunday's game, Soto now has the ninth best OPS (.904) in all of baseball including the fourth-highest on-base percentage (.396). He also has 21 home runs and a 3.8 WAR (sixth-best in the National League). He is still one of the best hitters in baseball.
His omission led to some social media discussion, and it turns out that Hank Greenberg once missed the All-Star Game with 105 RBI at the break, and that was in an era where RBI were highly valued. So maybe this isn't the biggest snub ever.
