Just as Monday is designated for the eponymous Pitcher List of the Top 100 starting pitchers where Nick Pollack ranks the Top 100 pitchers in fantasy baseball, Tuesday is the hereby appointed day on which Ben Palmer and I will publish our consensus rankings for the Top 150 hitters across the league. Unsurprisingly, we are appropriately calling it The Hitter List. Use these rankings to help understand what to expect from hitters for 2017 and as a tool to gauge trade value in your fantasy leagues. Note: These rankings have been made with H2H 5×5 12-teamers in mind.

With this established baseline, adjustments will be made in each successive edition of The Hitter List to account for performance, changes to spots occupied within batting orders, injuries, callups to MLB, and so on and so forth.

Without further ado, let’s take a look at the best bats in fantasy baseball:
