Rhys Hoskins Will Lead the National League in Home Runs

The Philadelphia Phillies' star is going to absolutely own in on-base percentage leagues this season.

Rhys Hoskins has had a terrific spring, with a .300/.417/.700 slash line, 5 doubles and 5 homers -- all with a solid strikeout-to-walk ratio of 13-to-10 down in Florida. Last year, Hoskins set a MLB record by blasting 18 homers in his first 34 games, and the power and plate discipline we saw last year with the Phils continued to be on display in spring training.

With a full season in front of him and his home park ranking as the top ballpark in terms of home-run hitting environment, Hoskins could smash 40 bombs. Now that Giancarlo Stanton out of the picture, the Phils' slugger could conceivably lead the National League in homers in 2018.
