Baseball isn’t just about the pitchers and catchers, but it’s also about the lumbers. Yes, that’s right! The lumber is held by batters, popularly known as hitters, as they face opposing pitchers to hit the baseball. Their primary goal comes in three ways: to drive every runner at home, to be the baserunner, and to help advance the runners to the bases.

Like the real baseball league, the hitters also play a critical role in DFS baseball games. Every year, bettors scout the toughest hitters to back on and include in fantasy games. In fact, some fantasy players spend time and research finding the best current hitters in the league. 

This year, the MLB is currently in motion, as well as the DFS baseball games. With this, many fantasy bettors are aiming to build a winning roster by scouting the best hitters. Hence, as you wager in the Daily Fantasy Baseball, here are the top ten strongest MLB hitters you can surely count on for your team. 

Mike Trout (Los Angeles Angels) 

Setting a career-high of 45 home runs, Mike Trout leads the race for the best MLB hitters today. He joined the Los Angeles Angels from 2011 until the present as the starting hitter. He received many prestigious awards throughout his baseball career, including an eight-time All-Star Award, 2019 All-MLB First Team, three-time American League MVP, and seven-time Silver Slugger Award. 

Christian Yelich (Milwaukee Brewers)

The Milwaukee Brewers are now one of the strongest teams to look forward to in MLB since the acquisition of Christian Yelich in 2018. He won a back-to-back title in 2018 and 2019 as the National League’s best hitter, averaging .329 and .326 at-bats, respectively. Besides the said award, he is also the recipient of the 2019 All-MLB First Team and 2018 National League MVP Award. 

Alex Bregman (Houston Astros) 

In 2019, Alex Bregman was named one of the best MLB hitters, establishing 41 homers, 112 RBI (Run Batted In), and 1.015 OPS (On-base plus slugging). He has worked with the Houston Astros since 2016. He had won awards like a two-time All-Star Award, 2019 All-MLB Second Team, and 2017 World Series Champion title throughout his professional baseball playing year.
