Throughout the season, James Outman has been towards the top of the best rookies in the National League. While he may not have done enough to win the Rookie of the Year award, Outman has done enough to prove that he is a bonafide MLB player.
On his way to a successful rookie season, Outman was taking advice from all of his veteran teammates. One of his teammates who had the biggest impact on his transition to the MLB was Jason Heyward.
Although he’s in his 14th year in the league, Heyward was spending his first season with the Dodgers just like Outman.
