A position-by-position look at the players who are primed for breakout seasons in 2024.
Every spring I write an article on breakout candidates but this year I took it a step further and created a 26-man roster of the players I think are most likely to have “breakout” seasons. My definition for a breakout candidate is simply a player I expect to perform at a significantly higher level than their major-league track record, or to burst onto the scene and blow away the rookie field.
Last year he played in only 97 games but still managed to get 19 homers and 22 steals, and in 2022 he played in 60 games but still had 14 homers and 12 steals. He’s a lot like — the talent screams at you but he needs to avoid the injured list and put together a season with 140 games and 600 plate appearances. Left fielders Wyatt Langford is among the favorites to win AL Rookie of the Year.
