Default Call your shot!!! Pick ONE player who you think will break out this season!

So Blowout is the home of the collecting experts so someone here should nail this one. Name one and only one player who you think will have a breakout season this year!

I'll start it off with Andrew Vaughn. He's moved to where he belongs at first base and I think he can spend more time focusing on hitting. He looked decent last year, but I think this is the season he steps it up. (Hopefully along with the rest of the White Sox lol).

Who you got???


*Edit - Go for one pitcher and one hitter if you like!

Can we make it one pitcher and one hitter?

Actually that's a really good idea! Otherwise we will probably have like 95% hitters on here

The breakout player is not currently on a major league team, but on the 40 man roster.

I’d love to see Merrill Kelly have a breakout year. He was pretty consistent last year but I’d love to see him compete for CY Young award

If his wrist issues are fixed, Alex Kirilloff is my pick.

He’s already dealing with renewed soreness in that wrist.

Not exactly...those comments about soreness were from about a month ago.

Yesterday, Derek Falvey's comments on AK were "No setbacks, no concern" and "he's in a great spot. Our strength guys said he's probably in as good a spot as they've seen him coming into camp, where he's at. The early return on swinging is very positive." Source is Do-Hyoung Park's Twitter...

CJ Abrams should have a strong year. Also hoping for strong showings from Steven Kwan.

My prediction is that CJ will be decent this year, and then really break out in ‘24.

(I sure hope so. I need more time to pick up his cards.)
