MLB Home Run Hitters The MLB has had a lot of sluggers in the game, the players that are top known for homeruns are Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, Sammy Sosa, and Barry Bonds, but they go on forever. In the League today there is a whole new generation of hitting machines and as a reader if you don’t know already, you’ll find out who they are. Big Papi From the Boston Red sox, David “Big Papi” Ortiz is one of the best in the game today when it comes to sending the ball out of the park. He went from playing first base to now strictly playing as a DH (Designated Hitter). With over 450 career homeruns, and still sending baseballs to the moon, he is considered one of the best sluggers in todays MLB. (Seronzo) Albert Pujols Playing for the Los Angeles Angles is the Cuban Hitting Machine. Albert Pujols may not be the biggest man (size wise), but don’t let that fool you. Pujols has 520 homeruns with the Los Angles Angles and he feels more coming, seeing as he still has 8 years on his contract. A personal favorite to myself, and a global favorite to many Albert Pujols knows how to send the ball out of the park. (Sorenzo) Prince Fielder Playing for the Texas Rangers, Prince Fielder is at the age of 30 and is sitting at 288 home runs. Now that may not seem like a lot, but the guy is getting up there in age for a professional athlete and his last 2 years were nearly his best years of his career. Winning the homerun derby in 2013 was just another step for Prince as well as getting traded to the Rangers and blasting more than 20 out of the park this season. Many people don’t know how good he actually is, but in homerun hitting he is one of the best. (Turner) Prospective With all of the new young talent coming into the MLB a good prospective would be to forsee all of the outstanding talent that is merging in. Mike Trout and Bryce Harper are both fresh in the league and are already rated in the top 20 players in todays game. Both of them are either over or near the 100 homerun milestone and they have only played for 2-3 years depending on the guy were talking about. Now as the rookies merge in the talk starts up, who will go where? Will he be a slugger? Will he be a bust? Who is he?. It’s going to be an exciting year to watch for the power hitters to merge into the open and shock the stadiums. The next big thing For the Minnesota twins newest player Kennys Vargas there is a light shining and it is bright. This guy can move, as well as hit. The first time I saw him play I remember he hit the ball so hard I thought it became powder. Being a fan of the newest Twins player, I also expect great things. There will be pressure on his back, but Vargas is also good under pressure. With our luck he will be amazing and the Twins will trade him for someone who is a benchwarmer, because that’s what the Twins do, because.. baseball.
