Here are the best MLB hitters of the week.
Freddie Freeman Atlanta Braves
With just a couple of weeks left in the season, I think Freeman can make an argument to receive some National League MVP votes. Big thanks to his league-leading 17 RBI this week, he now leads the National League with 46. A .438 Batting Average helped him push ahead of Juan Soto for National League lead.
Rafael Devers Boston Red Sox
With the Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals and the Patriots’ impressive start in the Cam Newton era, it’s easy to forget about the Red Sox. Although not much to root for this year, the future looks bright. Devers has progressed every year, especially this year at third base. He had a notable week at the plate leading the American League with a .526 Batting Average and .588 Batting Average with Balls In Play.
Will Smith Los Angeles Dodgers
With the news of the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air house being available on Airbnb, sounds like another Will Smith that lives in Los Angeles wants to challenge for the throne. Smith led all of baseball this past week with a .526 Batting Average.
Juan Soto Washington Nationals
Soto has been mentioned here a couple of times this season and rightfully so as he’s leading the National League in Slugging, On-Base Percentage, and second in Batting Average. You couldn’t keep him off the bases week as he led the league in On-Base Percentage (.625) and walk percentage (44.7%)
