As the 2024 MLB season comes to a close, Moneyline presents the final positional rankings, expanding the list to include the top 25 players at each position. In prior updates, the focus was solely on the top 10 players, but now we finalize the analysis with a broader scope. These rankings consider the present performance of players in 2024 without regard to past achievements or future projections. Each player qualifies for inclusion based solely on their performance at one specific position.
The 2024 season brought remarkable performances from numerous outfielders, and while many players were considered for the rankings, some notable names did not make the final list. These include players such as Randy Arozarena of the Tampa Bay Rays, Cody Bellinger of the Chicago Cubs, and Byron Buxton of the Minnesota Twins, among others. Some athletes such as Victor Robles and Kyle Tucker have made significant impacts but faced challenges that influenced their placement.
Leading the rankings, Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees had an exceptional season, logging a career-high 41 home runs and leading the American League in runs scored. Juan Soto, newly acquired by the Yankees, also made a strong impression, hitting 58 home runs in his first year with the team. These outfielders, alongside other high performers such as Teoscar Hernández of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Anthony Santander of the Baltimore Orioles, highlighted the depth and talent present in the outfield positions across the league this year.
