What happened: The New York Mets announced that the 2026 MLB All-Star Ballot is now open and called on fans to support their players. The team promoted the campaign with a #VoteMets push and a link to the official voting page.

Why it matters: Fan voting determines the position-player starters for the All-Star Game, so clubs lean on their fan bases to drive turnout for their own roster. The Mets join a wave of teams running coordinated daily voting drives as balloting opens across the league.

What to watch: Watch for the league's first ballot-update totals to gauge which Mets players are drawing the most fan support before voting closes.
