MLB Hitter Power Rankings Predictions: Marcell Ozuna climbs, Brent Rooker joins top 10 in Week 23

Not many MLB sluggers can compare to what Aaron Judge has done so far this season. He has been at the top spot for months and is running away with the American League MVP Award.

While he has the top spot likely locked down for the rest of the season, that does not mean there are no shakeups with the rest of the list. Here's a closer look at where the rest of these sluggers could end up with next week's hitter power rankings.

Top 10 MLB Power Hitters Ranking Prediction: Week 23

#10. Brent Rooker

Brent Rooker has been a bright spot for a struggling Oakland Athletics team. While he cannot lead the team to victory himself, he has been one of the most consistent power hitters this season.

He has played 117 games so far, hitting .285/.364/.561 with 31 home runs and 88 runs batted in. He recently hit his 31st homer of the year, making that a new career high.

#9. Rafael Devers

Rafael Devers is enjoying yet another great season at the plate. He is currently hitting .290 with an OPS of .940, which would be a career-high if the season were to end today.

#8. Gunnar Henderson

Gunnar Henderson has been a treat to watch with the Balti more Orioles this season. He got off to a bit of a rocky start but got red-hot for a stretch. He has since cooled down but is still in contention for the MVP.

#7. Yordan Alvarez

Yordan Alvarez has been holding it down for the Houston Astros while Kyle Tucker has been on the IL. He has been a reason for Houston's lead in the American League West.

In 125 games, he has hit .313/.400/.563 with 28 home runs and 71 runs batted in. He is nine home runs away from tying a career-high.

#6. Marcell Ozuna

Marcell Ozuna has stepped up for the Atlanta Braves during a season of injuries. He has 37 home runs this season, which is the fourth most in the MLB. He is just three homers away from tying the career-high he sat last season.

#5. Vladimir Guerrerro Jr.

Vladimir Guerrerro Jr. has been impressive while his club has not. He started to get hot in June and has kept up that pace since then. In his last five games alone, he has nine hits.

#4. Juan Soto

Juan Soto has been turning heads all season long in his first season with the New York Yankees. In 130 games, he has hit .291/.421/.590 with 37 home runs and 95 runs batted in.

#3. Shohei Ohtani

Shohei Ohtani recently became the youngest member to reach the 40-40 club. He did so in 126 games, shattering MLB legend Alfonso Soriano's record of 147 games during the 2006 season.

#2. Bobby Witt Jr.

Bobby Witt Jr. is having a monster season. He is hitting an MLB-leading .344 batting average to go with 28 home runs and 95 runs batted in. All eyes would be on him if it were not for the player we are about to mention next.

#1. Aaron Judge

Aaron Judge has been a thrill to watch this season. He has 51 home runs this season and is starting to run away as MLB's home run leader.

He is also running away with the American League MVP Award as well. There is seemingly nothing this many can do with a bat in his hands.
