Gore or Donovan so far. Until someone steps up. For NL.

J-Rod for AL all the way.

The Hit Dispenser (Yepez) is getting hammered on defense and baserunning in the WAR department, otherwise he might have seen a place on that list. He had 0.7 fWAR at one point but errors got him in the negatives some. Still a 120 wRC+ that should see DH and 1B action.

Love my Cardinals but shouldn't Morel and Strider be on this list? Maybe over Gorman/Suzuki even? Strider has a better ERA than Gore and close in innings pitched.

The top 5 NL rookies in fWAR (as of June 15th, 2022):

1. Gore
2. Donovan
3. Strider
4. Harris II
5. Morel

If I'm currently on team Donovan does that make me a homer?

These 11 rookies have exceeded expectations
Fewer than three months into this season, it has already been a fruitful year for rookies in Major League Baseball. The quartet who led off MLB Pipeline's preseason list of the Top 100 prospects -- Bobby Witt Jr., Adley Rutschman, Julio Rodríguez and Spencer Torkelson -- are all in the big leagues. Same goes for No. 7 Gabriel Moreno. No. 9 CJ Abrams spent much of the first month in the Majors, and No. 5 Riley Greene is on the way.

Outside the top 10, you've got Alek Thomas, Hunter Greene, George Kirby, Nolan Gorman -- the list of early success stories from the preseason Top 100 is a lengthy one.

And this article about standout rookies will go in depth about none of them. That's because once you go beyond the Top 100, there are a bevy of players who are proving that they belong. Here are 11 of the best rookies you wouldn't have found on that list.
