The 2024 MLB season was special for a number of different reasons. Fans, experts, and players were able to witness history multiple times, including Shohei Ohtani becoming the first player to record a 50 home run and 50 stolen base season. Fans also saw the emergence of Paul Skenes as potentially the next great pitcher thanks to his impressive strikeout numbers.
Although players such as Ohtani and Skenes are expected to thrive, it's the players that seemingly come out of nowhere and succeed that capture the hearts of MLB fans. These types of players may have been stars who saw their light fade in recent years who bounceback, or players who finally enjoyed a breakout MLB season. This season certainly had it's fair share of feel-good stories.
Here's a closer look at 6 MLB players who enjoyed success seemingly out of nowhere in 2024
