Who’s the best hitter in all of the minor leagues?
Quite the loaded question. If you’re talking about pure hitting for average skill, then you couldn’t go wrong by saying Los Angeles’ Mike Trout, Minnesota’s Ben Revere or Atlanta’s Freddie Freeman.
If you’re looking for power, then pick a name out of the hat that includes Kansas City’s Mike Moustakas, Washington’s Bryce Harper, and Oakland’s Chris Carter.
And if you’re thinking about including plate discipline and selectivity, then you’ll have to include Kansas City’s Eric Hosmer, Seattle’s Dustin Ackley and Washington’s Derek Norris in the discussion.
It’s too tough of a decision to come to, so instead, let’s take a look at each team and rank their top three hitters, and I’ll let you decide for yourself who the best hitter, or hitters, in the minors are.
