New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo doesn't think each MLB team should be represented in the All-Star Game if the player selected isn't worthy of a spot.

"The process is broken," Nimmo told Mike Puma of the New York Post on Thursday. "I don't think every team should get a person. It's supposed to be All-Stars. It's not supposed to be, 'Who is the best player on every team?' It's supposed to be, 'Who are the best players in the major leagues?'"

Nimmo has never been chosen to play in the Midsummer Classic despite owning a 128 wRC+ over his 10-year career.

Juan Soto, Nimmo's teammate, wasn't selected to participate in this year's marquee event either. The four-time All-Star has gone deep 21 times with 53 RBIs and a .900 OPS over 93 games for a Mets club fighting for the NL East crown.

Mets right-hander Clay Holmes believes Soto's significance to their team goes beyond the All-Star label.

"The consistency he's showed up with, the at-bats he's taken, is more than an All-Star. He's one of the best in the game and a big part of our lineup," Holmes said.

Marlins outfielder Kyle Stowers will take part in the All-Star Game as Miami's only representative. He's slashing .279/.352/.507 with 16 homers and 48 RBIs across 88 contests. Fernando Tatis Jr., Corbin Carroll, and James Wood are the National League's other outfield reserves. The starters - Ronald Acuña Jr., Pete Crow-Armstrong, and Kyle Tucker - were voted in by fans.

The All-Star Game goes Tuesday night at Atlanta's Truist Park.
