Scott's Top 150 Hitters List

Is Pete Crow-Armstrong the best hitter not named Kyle Tucker on the Cubs? Are we actually starting to see some sort of development from Luis Robert? Is Jorge Polanco back to his all-star caliber form from a few years ago and is Noelvi Marte for real? Willy Adames was looking pretty bleak until his big day on Sunday afternoon, but does that get him off the hook and back into Scott's good graces or will he continue tumbling down the list? Oh, and Spencer Torkelson is still good at baseball. Get Torked, nerds!
