Top 75 Arizona Fall League Hitters For 2019

One of the first projects Matt Thompson and myself (Ralph) worked on after the start of the site was the 2018 Arizona Fall League Top 75 hitters. It was a fun project, and allowed us to dig in a little on the rosters going into the other Fall Classic. This year’s group feels top heavy, but the perception of depth can change a lot over the course of the six-week season. Below we have ranked all of the players and compiled their statistics from the 2019 MiLB campaign.

Ranking Note: We balanced overall impact, not just the ability to impact the game at the plate. Defensive grades weighed heavy particularly on premier defensive positions like shortstop, catcher, and centerfield.
