Willy Adames had always been a slow starter, but this season he was worrying fans with a career-worst start. Traditionally, he improves significantly in the latter half of the season, which is now reflected in his performance.
Logan Webb, Robbie Ray, and Randy Rodriguez were named All-Star reserves for the National League, marking the highest representation of pitchers from any team. Their combined ERA of 3.45 places them second in the league, showcasing a strong pitching performance. Webb ranks fifth among NL starters with an ERA of 2.62, while Ray follows closely at eighth with a 2.68 ERA. Rodriguez impresses with a remarkable .71 ERA, having allowed only 21 hits over 38 innings.
