New York Yankees outfielder Mike Tauchman was among those who stepped up to have a tremendous 2019 season.
Like DJ LeMahieu and Adam Ottavino, Tauchman was previously a member of the Colorado Rockies but came over in a trade unlike the other two. Before 2019, Tauchman appeared in just 52 games and had a .153 career average. That would all change.
The 29-year-old of Palatine, Illinois, hit .277 with 13 home runs and 47 RBIs in 2019. He had a .504 slugging and a .865 OPS in just 260 at-bats. He spent some time in AAA throughout the year and missed the final three or so weeks of the season due to injury.
