Scott's Top 150 Hitters List

It's late in the season and with only a little over a month left, the way that we manage our teams needs to change. We can't hang on to the guys that aren't going to perform over that short timeframe and we need to take some chances on guys who might. So how do we sort between the two? Scott helps us all figure it out.

Scott's Top 150 Hitters List

A whole lot of fantasy-relevant bats have returned from the IL this week and a few have been called up from the minors as well. Where does Samuel Basallo factor in to the catcher ranks the rest of the year? It's hard to believe that Geraldo Perdomo and Brice Turang are now top-50 hitters, but here we are. It's like the Paul Rudd meme, "Hey, look at us." Meanwhile, the Giants' power bats are falling and so is Yankees outfielder Jasson Domínguez.

Scott's Top 150 Hitters List

There must be something in the water in Seattle, because Josh Naylor has stolen 11 (!!) bases in 15 games with his new ball club, not to mention four home runs. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is leading the Blue Jays to a division lead and joins elite company in Scott's List. Meanwhile, Riley Greene is in a funk and Scott begrudgingly had to move him down the ranks.

Scott's Top 150 Hitters List

Is Julio Rodriguez finally ready to play good baseball again? Seems like he is able to just flip the switch from mediocre to outstanding around this time every single year. Brett performs a wellness check on Scott after seeing Riley Greenedropped (only seven spots) in the rankings. Is it finally time to drop Marcell Ozuna?

Scott's Top 150 Hitters List

The Boston Red Sox are red hot, and Cedanne Rafaela is leading the charge. Isaac Paredes and pod-favorite Spencer Torkelson are also rising up the ranks this week. On the flip side, big name outfielders (or at least, outfield-eligible players) Julio Rodriguez, Jackson Merrill and Mookie Betts are all falling down the ranks this week.
