The Major League's official website MLB.com announced the top 10 batter power rankings on Thursday (Korea time). The announcement showed fluctuations in the rankings, excluding the top 10 hitters.
According to the report, Betts topped the last power ranking. Betts, who is aiming for the National League MVP, is still showing an amazing batting performance.
Betts hit 0.377 with six homers, 25 RBIs, 29 runs and 49 hits, and a 0.481 OPS 1.104 on-base percentage in 33 games of the season until the 2nd.
These are his batting average, on-base percentage, OPS, runs scored, and hits. What's most surprising is that Betts has changed his position to shortstop. He is showing off an amazing hit despite the burden of defense.
In addition, Ohtani, who jumped from fourth place to second place in the power rankings, hit 0.336 with seven homers and 19 RBIs and a 0.399 OPS 1.017 on-base percentage in 32 games of the season until the 2nd.
Next came Juan Soto, who was ranked second in the previous power rankings. Soto is the strongest candidate for American League MVP. He will become a free agent after this season.
Gunner Henderson, who did not make his name on the last power ranking, continued to be ranked fourth. Henderson is expected to compete with Soto for the American League MVP.
In addition, monster shortstop Eli de la Cruz, who was not named in the last power ranking, was ranked seventh, while Salvador Perez, Alec Bohm and Marcel Ozuna formed eighth to 10th.
It is noteworthy that two shortstop and catcher each put their names on the list. Notably, Betts took the top spot despite being a shortstop, proving himself to be the MVP.
