I posted my updated Top 50 Hitters for 2013 on Sunday, so today I am going to post my Top 51 - 100 Hitters for 2013. Keep in mind that these rankings are my early thoughts on my hitter rankings and could change after we complete our review of my 2012 Position Rankings once the season is over. With that said, these rankings are my thoughts on how these hitters will perform in 2013, not based on how they performed in 2012, so there may a few players included in my rankings that were horrible in 2012. Think Eric Hosmer. I also will be higher on some guys than others, as I am not basing my rankings on how others rank these players. These are my own rankings. In addition, I will probably be lower on some players than you will see elsewhere. Think Albert Pujols or Jose Bautista.
Here are my Top 51-100 Hitter Rankings for 2013:

Looking at my 51 - 100 rankings, an argument could be made to rank Player A ahead of Player B, and I probably would not disagree too vehemently. I could change my rankings between player 51 and player 75 twenty different times, as they are that close, in my opinion.
I will update this article with comments on Tuesday evening or Wednesday morning.
