MLB's 25 Hottest Bats — Hitter Prop Targets

The MLB season's such a marathon, it's easy to lose the forest for the trees in a massive sea of data. For example, a hitter (or team for that matter) can experience a horrid stretch of several hundred PAs, which will inevitably erode the larger statistical sample. So it's not to say we want to chase the hottest hitters, as much as be aware of already great players who are fully healthy and seeing the ball well.
