The “Big Three” of the Los Angeles Dodgers were all in the top 10 batter power rankings in the first week of MLB.COM selection.
MLB.COM has unanimously ranked Mookie Betts No. 1 on the 5th (Korea Standard Time). Freddie Freeman is in fourth place, and Shohei Ohtani is in seventh place.
MLB.COM said, “Betz is the unanimous winner. It’s not difficult to know why,” adding, “The Dodgers star not only plays at the MVP level every year, but he is also the most popular hitter earlier this season.”
Betts leads the majors with five home runs, 15 hits, 11 RBIs, 14 runs scored, and a 1.167 slugging percentage, and is the No. 1 player in the National League batting average of .500 and on-base percentage of .605.
MLB.COM said, “Freeman’s production is like a clockwork. He hit .325 with 21 home runs, 100 RBIs and a .918 OPS in his first year with the Dodgers in 2022. He hit .331 with 29 home runs, 102 RBIs and a .976 OPS in his second year. And he has a .414 batting average and an OPS of 1.114 in his first eight games in 2024.” 노래방알바
“Otani is the last member of the big three of the Dodgers. Betts, Freeman, and Ohtani are the most powerful trio in the baseball world in 2024. The Dodgers are the only team that has multiple hitters in the top 10 of the 2024 power rankings,” MLB.COM said. Ohtani hit his first home run of the season on Thursday.
Juan Soto (New York Yankees) ranked second in the power rankings, while Fernando Tatis Jr. (San Diego Padres) ranked sixth.
