Brent Rooker has absolutely broken out in 2024, delivering an incredible season, hitting .304 with 38 homers and 11 steals. Coming into the season, the Oakland Athletic was seen as a power-only bat that would drain your batting average. However, throughout this season, he has proven his value to be much more by improving his plate approach and adding some speed to boot. This performance has Rooker ranked as the 10th most valuable hitter on the Razzball Player Rater in 2024. Heading into next season, we have to view him as a top-three-round player, especially considering the move to Sacramento, where he’ll benefit from short porches down both lines. This week, in our final Hitter Profile for 2024, we look ahead to next season and hunt for the next Brent Rooker-type breakout.
