Top 10 breakout players early in the 2024 MLB season

Brice Turang, 2B, Milwaukee Brewers

Turang’s numbers might not stand out compared to some on this list, but his vast improvement has been one of the top storylines for a Brewers squad that has stood atop the NL Central for most of the season. What might be lost in Turang’s breakout campaign thus far is his impressive defensive ability at second base as he has been flawless fielding the ball this year. At the plate, Turang is batting .299 after having just a .218 average last year. In addition to a .778 OPS, the 24-year-old from California has also put up two home runs, 12 RBIs and 14 stolen bases which are tied for the second most in the majors. Turang has become one of the most reliable players in an exciting young core in Milwaukee and looks poised to continue this hot stretch.
