The topic says it all, I tried to search for this but could not come up with a current list. Switch hitters if you have one on your team you know how much they can help. To be able to bat from either side, allows you a great deal of tactics. So to get to the point can anyone list what they consider the current best MLB switch hitters. I might want to trade for one later in my franchise

Chase Headley and Pablo Sandoval immediately come to mind.

Victor Martinez.

Victor Martinez has to be right up there if you are looking for the top current switch hitters who can also hit in the middle of the order. Other options for middle of the order guys are Carlos Beltran, Melky Cabrera, Matt Weiters, Nick Swisher, and Carlos Santana. The latter two aren't performing well in real life but are good players in the game. There are a lot of speed guys that are switch hitters; Coco Crisp, Angel Pagan, and Everth Cabrera.

Others not mentioned:

Angel Pagan
Carlos Beltran
Melky Cabrera
Matt Wieters
Mark Teixiera

Waiting on Dexter Folwer to jump back into form with Houston.

EDIT: wolfpack beat me a bit heh.

Haha I was reading down your list and was like "I just mentioned most of those guys." Fowler will round back into form I'm sure. Probably just trying to take too much advantage of the short porch in right.

Though I wouldn't call him a top switch hitter, Ryan Doumit is a good one to have on the bench.

Billy Hamilton has turned it around a little bit since scuffling out of the gate to start the season. Just get him on and you should be able to get him into scoring position fairly easily.

Asdrubal Cabrera is streaky as a switch, and depending on who you have at short you may be able to improve your middle infield..
