Part 2/7:
The discussion kicks off at number nine with the Houston Astros. Historically seen as having a dominant one-through-three lineup, changes have left them struggling to maintain that title. With Jose Altuve and Yordan Alvarez still in the mix, Christian Walker is included as a strong option, despite some skepticism about his placement.
Staying in the American League, at number eight we have the Baltimore Orioles, with standout players like Gunnar Henderson and Adley Rutschman leading the charge. Tyler O'Neill is expected to bring back his big power after some adjustments to the left-field wall, making this lineup a solid contender.
