Wood has developed into one of MLB’s brightest, young power hitters. Entering the week, he is one of two MLB outfielders with at least 15 home runs and 10 stolen bases. He’s neck-and-neck with Jordan Walker for the best outfielder in the National League and Major League Baseball.

Everything has clicked in his fourth season. Jordan Walker is making an early case for the NL MVP Award. Entering the week, he leads the Cardinals in batting average, OPS, hits, home runs, and RBI.
Juan Soto hits for power and reaches base at a high rate, but what makes him special is the low number of strikeouts. Entering the week, Soto has a top OPS among MLB outfielders. He leads the Mets in batting average, on-base percentage, OPS, and home runs.
A strong month has seen a great rise in Buxton’s numbers. Entering the week, he leads MLB outfielders in home runs. He will be one of the most sought-after players at the trade deadline.
Corbin Caroll has developed into one of the game’s best outfielders. Entering the week, he ranks first in triples, second in slugging percentage, and second in OPS among MLB outfielders. He is on his way to starting for the National League in the upcoming All-Star Game.

The Yankees are finding ways to win while Judge is on the injured list with a fractured rib. He has produced MVP numbers thus far. The team needs its superstar to make a full return to health.
His home run and RBI totals don’t compare to those of other outfielders, but Riley Greene has put together a strong season. Entering the week, he is tied for fourth in hits among MLB outfielders. By the end of the season, Riley Greene will see a drastic increase in home runs and RBI.
Cruz has turned into a special player. Entering the week, he is the only MLB outfielder with double-digit steals. Among league outfielders, he is seventh in home runs and first in stolen bases.
Pages’ name gets overshadowed by all the talent on Los Angeles’ roster. Still, he is putting together a strong season. Entering the week, Andy Pages is tied for the MLB outfield lead in RBI. Among Dodgers hitters, Pages leads the team in RBI and is tied for first in home runs.
Arozarena is having a strong season. Entering the week, he is fourth in hits among MLB outfielders. He is second in stolen bases.
