Curtis Granderson NYY (14) 17. Adam Jones BAL (15) 18. Adrian Beltre TEX (13) 19. Michael Bourn ATL (17) 20. Adrian Gonzalez BOS (18) |  Even though his BABIP is at .397 Trout is a guy that can maintain a high average due to his top end speed |
The change in scenery should be exactly what Hanley Ramirez needs to get going. He had a troubled past in Miami but in LA he gets a new start. He also gets new teammates Matt Kemp, Andre Ethier and Shane Victorino. If you want to see my ROS projections for Hanley, click here.

Pablo Sandoval SF* (50) 69. Josh Willingham MIN (64) 70. Bryce Harper WSH (56) |  Hitting .260 with a 19.6% strikeout rate will force me to move you down 14 spots. A 9.8% walk rate will keep you down there. |
Dan Uggla has a .209 batting average this year, it isn't too far off from last year's .233 average. The biggest difference is his power. Last year he hit 36 long balls and had a .220 ISO power rate. This year his ISO rate is 69 points lower than last year.

Ichiro Suzuki NYY (NR) 100. Ian Desmond WSH (58) |  It's been a down season for Uggla but last month's unlucky .163 BABIP may have had something to do with it. |
