Best Batter Today

Jose Ramirez reclaims the top slot in the Baseball Musings Batter Rankings after going two for four with a home run Wednesday afternoon. He slips past Mike Trout, who went one for three with a double and a walk in the Angels 6-1 loss to Detroit. Mookie Betts, J.D. Martinez, and Francisco Lindor round out the top five.

Over the last month or so, both Trout and Ramirez are getting on base extremely well. Trout leads in OBP, but Ramirez has more hits, and knocked out 25 extra-base hits. Ramirez also struck out just 14 times in 111 at bats. His putting the ball in play is a big reason for his success.

Mookie Betts is still recovering from his injury.
