Best MLB Players On Each Team
This page will tell you the best MLB players on each team
Al East
New York Yankees
Starting with the AL East, we will have the best players on each team. The New York Yankees have had an incredible first half of the season. After the trade deadline they have kinda slowed down but still have clinched a spot in the playoffs. There best player this season has been Aaron Judge. Aaron Judge has had a great season leading the league with 61 homers and tied the AL record. He still has multiple more games to hit one more homerun to beat the AL record. He has 173 hits and 130 RBI's. With a OPS of 1.121 and a OBP of .425.
Toronto Blue Jays
Next up is the Toronto Blue Jays. The Blue Jays have had a good year coming on in the late season. They are now in a wildcard race with the Seattle Mariners and the Tampa Bay Rays. In this spot goes to Bo Bichette. Bo Bichette has come on late in the season with 24 homers on the season and 92 RBI's. He has 181 hits with a .799 OPS. Bo Bichette has definitely helped the BLue Jays right back in to a spot where they can make the playoffs.
Red Soxs
We are now going to the Red Soxs. This one was easy because the Red Soxs have not been really good this year and pretty much have zero chance of making the playoffs. Rafeal Devers takes this one pretty much carrying the Red Socks on his back this year with 27 homers and 87 RBI's. The red socks have not been that great this year with the injury of Trevor Story. Rafeal Devers also has a OPS of .873 and a OPB of .353. Rafeal Devers has helped the Red Soxs a ton this season with the Red Socks 74 wins.
Tampa Bay Rays
Next we are heading for Hurricane Ian, we're going to Tampa Bay. The Rays have had a dominate season and have slowed off as the season has goes on. Personally this was a tough decision but I had to go with Shane McClanahan. Shane Mcclanahan has had a dominate season striking out 192 batters with a WHIP of a 0.92. They are still in a wild card race with the Blue Jays who I metioned early and the Seattle Mariners. Shane Mcclanahan also has 12 wins and 7 losses with a 2.51 ERA. With 27 games started. Overall I think Shane Mcclanahan can win AL Cy young.
Baltimore Orioles
Last but not least in the Al East is the Baltimore Orioles. The Orioles have battled hard all season but might fall just short of a playoff spot. This spot goes to Cedric Mullins. Cedric Mullens 591 hits with 16 of those being homers. He also has the speed and power driving in 64 RBI's and 32 stolen bases. This does show that Mullens is super fast. He must have a good OBS to the right? He actually is just about average with.320. His OPS also is average .729.

Al West
Houston Astros
We are now going to the AL West. We will start with the Houston Astros. The Astros have clinched the division. The Astros had a lot of great picks because they were so good this year. I went with yordan Alvarez with his great season with 37 homeruns. Although all of you think that is little because of Aaron Judge has 61. This is a great amount of homeruns. He aslo has 96 RBI's and 1 stolen base so you can tell, he's not the fastest. he has a .407 OPB and a OPS of 1.021. overall Astros Yordan Alvarez has helped the Astros majorly in clinching the division.
Seattle Mariners
This one was definitely hard knowing the Seattle Mariners have had a great season and could make the playoff for a first time in forever!!! This one has to be Julio Rodriguez. Julio Rodriguez has had an incredible rookie season. Julio Rodriguez has 73 RBI's and 27 bombs(homeruns). He has a .342 OBP and an OPS of .844. he also has the biggest contract in baseball right now with 480 million dollar contract which is the biggest contract in MLB as a rookie. All in all Julio rodriguez is a super star in the making.
Los Angeles Angels
We are now going down to LA. The Angels have had an okay season with a record of 70-86. Mike Trout has to take this one. Mike Trout has been hurt but being the stud he is he is still the best on the team. Mike Trout has had 39 homeruns with an OPS of .994 and a OBP of .367. He also has a batting average of .282. Mike trout is super fast but apparently is not the stealing base type with 1 stolen base all year. All in all everybody like this fish man. This man is still a superstar and if he can stay healthy 1 year he could be super good and set some records.
Oakland Athletics
Now we are going back north to Oakland. Oakland has had a terrible season losing all their studs. Seth Brown definetly helped Oakland this year and that's why he takes this one. Seth Brown has had 69 RBI's with 25 of those RBI's being homeruns. Setn Brown also has seen the plate 488 AB's with 112 being hits. He has a .303 OBP and OPS of .748. Seth Brown has definitely helped the Athletics massively.
Texas Rangers
We are now going down south to Texas. The Rangers are just a little better than the Oakland Athletics but are a little bit better with a record of 66-92. This one goes to Corey Seager. Corey Seager signed a massive deal with the Texas Rangers leaving the best team in MLB, the Los Angeles Dodgers. Corey Seager is batting with a .244 batting average. He has 33 homers with 83 RBI's and 3 stolen bases. he has 585 bats and 143 hits. Personally I liked Corey Seager when with Dodgers but now, not so much.

Al Central
Cleveland Guardians
We will now hop over to the Al Central. Starting with the Cleveland Guardians. This one will go to Jose Rameriez. Jose Rameriez has had a awesome season with 122 RBI's and 29 homers. He has a .275 batting average with an OPS of .862. He has slowed down late in the season with 3 homeruns in the past 30 games. He has 20 stolen bases this season. You would not think that this guy is practically a homerun hitter. Overall this has helped the Cleveland Guardians clinch the division.
Chicago White Soxs
We are now hopping over to the windy city. The Chicago White soxs have had a okay season going 80-80. This record will not get them in the playoffs sadly. The white Soxs have to have one really good player right? Well you'd be wrong the White Soxs have a lot of good players but none that really stand out. This one was definitely difficult but it goes to the White Soxs first basemen Jose Abreu. Joose Abreu has had an okay season with an OBP of .378 and a OPS of .823. He has definitely not has not had his best year at the plate with 15 homers and 75 RBI's. Jose Abreu is definitely not fast either with 0 stolen bases on the year.
Minnesota Twins
We are now going to Minnesota where the Twins have not had their best season. They have had a lot of their star players injured. This one goes to Carlos Correa. Carlos Correa still is him stud self after leaving the Astros and signing a 3 year deal with the Twins. Carlos has had 22 bombs with 64 RBI's to add to that. He has a OBP of .367 and a batting average of .292. Carlos has definitely had a littl off season but next year he should be back to normal and maybe the Twins can make a playoff push if there not devastated by injury.
Detroit Tigers
The Detroit Tigers have not had a goood year as they are standing right now with 66 wins and 3 games left of the season which means they missed a playoff spot by a mile. This one will go to Javier Baez. Even though Javier has had a rough season with 17 homeruns and 66 RBI's. He has not had a great season since he played with the cubs in 2020. Javier also recored 9 stolen bases with a .239 batting average. His OPS has been lowall season being .677 and a OBP of .280. Even though this team does not seem this good, they are still not the worst team in this division!!!
Kansas City Royals
The Kansas City Royal have definitely been the worst team in baseball this year with a record of 65-95. Salvador Perez takes this one but he has definitely not had his best season with 23 homers. The catcher has also had a rough RBI count this year with 76. Everything is low for him this season, his OPS, batting average, and OPS are all low. His batting average is .254 and his OPS is .757 and his OBP is .292. Overall Salvador Perez has not contributed like he did last year but nobody on his team contributed and that why they are so low in the standings.

We are now hopping over to the NL.
Nl East
Atlanta Braves
Starting with the Nl East. The NL East has had some really good teams this year with 1 team breaking 100 wins. Austin Riley has led the team in homers for a while with 38 homeruns and 93 RBI's. He has a .275 batting average and an OBP .349 and a OPS of .880. Austin Riler isn't the fastest of players with 2 stolen bases. Austin Riley has definitely helped the Braves get to 100 wins.
New York Mets
The New York Mets still do have a shot at 100 wins but not likely as there are 3 games left and they are 2 games from 100 wins. The Mets have definitely have had a really good season with a lot of their players coming off injury in the middle of the season. This one goes to Pete Alonso with 40 homers. pete has had a season with his 40 homers and 131 RBI's. He has a .350 OBP and a .867 OPS. His batting average is a .269. Overall I love Pete Alonso because he is super entertaining to watch.
Philidelphia Phillies
We are now going to Philidelphia. Phillies have had a great season clinching a playoff spot. I think that they could of done a little better but with Bryce Harper being out 1/4 of the season sucks do to injury of his hand. This spot goes to Kyle Schwerber. Kyle has an amazing season laughing 46 balls out of the park but coming just short of 100 RBI's with 94. You wouldn't think this homerun hitter would be fast but has 10 stolen bases. Kyle could be batting a little higher with a batting average of .219. All in all Kyle Schwarber has helped the Phillies majorly with his big bat.
Miami Marlins
The Miami Marlins have had a rough season with a record of 68-93. It really sucks when youn have a tough division to beat. This one goes to Sandy Alcantara. Sandy has had a great season with a team he is on with a record of 14-9. He has a great amount of strike outs with 207 and 228.2 innings pitched. His ERA is pretty low being 2.28. Sandy has helped out the pitching staff majorly.
Washington Nationals
We are now going to the Washington Nationals. The Nationals have had an absoulute terrible season so this one was super hard to pick. This one goes to Lane Thomas. It would easily go to Juan Soto if he was still on the team. Lane Thomas is having a season hitting 17 homers this season and only hitting 29 in his career. He has really had to step up after the Juan Soto trade. Lane has 52 RBI's with 8 stolen bases. he is batting .243 with an OPS of .710 and OBP of .303. This guy has really had to step up and I can see him being even better next year.

Nl Central
St. Louis Cardinals
We will now hop over to the division with 1 playoff team. We will start with that playoff team. The St. Louis Cardinals have had a great season clinching them a spot in the playoffs. This one was super easy knowing who I was gonna go with the whole time. Paul Goldschmidt has had a great season and in my opinion best first basemen this year. He has 35 homers with 115 RBI's. Paul has had a show off season tallying 7 stolen bases with a 3.17 batting average. Paul's OPS is high to being .982 and OBP of .404. Paul Goldschmidt has had a standout season overall.
Miliwakee Brewers
We are now going to Miliwakee. The Brewers have had a great year with 86 wins. They arre gonna fall just short of playoffs though. The Miliwakee Brewers have a lot of good player and this one is Willy Adames. Willy has had 98 RBI's and 31 of those are homers. he is batting a .236 and has an OBS of .297. His OPS is .755. Willy has 83 runs and 132 hits. he pplays shortstop and is incredible to watch defensively. All and all Willy Adames is a superstar.
Chicago Cubs
We are going back to the windy city. The Chicago Cubs have had a decent season but will not make the playoffs winning 73 of the 162 games. This one has to be going to the Cubs catcher Wilson Contreras. Wilson Contrears leads his team in a lot of the hitting catergory's and was gonna get traded at the trade deadline. He has 22 homers with 55 RBI's on top of that with 4 stolen bases. He also has a .243 batting average with an .8155 OPS with a .349 on base percentage. Wilson Contreras as helped out this yea but is gonna need a little bit more help out of his teammates if they want to be a playoff team.
Cincinnati Reds
The Cincinnati Reds have had a bad season going 62-99 just beating the Pirates by 1 win. The red do not have that superstar player so this one was super hard to pick. It has too goo to Jonathan India. Jonathan has had a terrible season compared to last year only putting 10 balls out of the park this year with 41 RBI's and 3 stolen bases. Jonathan has a batting average of .249 and an OPS of .705 and an OBp of .327. Jonathan has not had the greatest season but nobody on his team has have either.
Pittsburgh Pirates
The Pittsburgh Pirates have had a rough year with a record of 62-100. They did have one player that definitely helped out. Bryan Reynolds has 27 homers and 62 RBI's. He has a batting average of .262 and an OBP of .345. He has has an OPS of .806 with 7 stolen bases.Personally Bryan Reynolds is one of my favorite players to watch.

Los Angeles Dodgers
The Los Angeles Dodgers are the best team in baseball with a record of 111-51. I always feel that the Dodgers are the best team in baseball every year but then choke the playoffs. The Dodgers best player was definitely Mookie Betts. Mookie Betts player a key role locking down right field and adding to that with his bat. Mookie hit 35 homers with 82 RBI's and 12 stolen bases. He also has and OPS of .873 and an OBP of.340. You could say that Mookie is there key to success but if you go through their roster look how many people contributed.
San Diego Padres\
The San Diego Padres have had a great season trading for Juan Soto at the trade deadline while Tatis was pretty much out the whole year. This one goes to Jusn Soto with 27 homers and to add on top of that 62 RBI's and 6 stolen bases. He has an OPS of .853 and a batting average of .242, also an OBP of .401. You could say Juan Soto has helped out the Padres majorly.
San Fransisco Giants
The San Fransisco Giants are gonna fall just short of a playoff spot. They have put up a fight all season. This one goes to Wilmer flores with a batting average of .229 and 19 homers with 71 RBI's and 0 stolen bases. Wilmer has an OPS of .710 and an OBp of .316. Wilmer has had one of his best seasons.
Arizona Diamondbacks
The Arizona Diamondbacks do the same thing every year. They are pretty much bad every year. I can see them getting better though with all this young talent coming up to them. Tjis one was hard but I went with Jordan Luplow. Jordan has had an okay season with 11 homers and 28 RBI's with 5 stolen bases. he has an OPS of .635 and an OBP of .274. This one was super hard to pick because they all were not very good.
Colorado Rockies
The Colorado Rockies where nt good this year despite being in the highest elevated stadium in all of baseball. The Rockies had a couple good player but the one I went with was C.J. Cron. C.J. had an incredible season launching 29 out of the park and driving in 102 runs. He has a batting average of .257 and and OBP of .315. C.J. has definetly helped by not putting them as the worst team in baseball.
