KC Royals: Jesse Hahn would be the ultimate redemption story

Jesse Hahn was once a player with a high ceiling. In need of a change of scenery, though, he was traded to the KC Royals in January of 2018. The former Oakland Athletic proceeded to miss the entire 2018 campaign due to injury, and spent nearly all of the following season rehabbing from it.

Hahn worked his way back to Kansas City for six appearances towards the end of 2019. In those games, he walked six batters and surrendered seven earned runs in just 4.2 innings. While he managed to record seven strikeouts, that seemed secondary when staring at a 13.
