The 2010 MLB season was arguably the most surprising of any in recent memory. From the bevy of no-hitters to the San Francisco Giants and the Texas Rangers meeting in the World Series, there was no shortage of outcomes that would have left fans scratching their heads had they been told how the season would turn out beforehand.
No baseball story line from 2010 garnered more intrigue, however, than that of Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Jose Bautista.
The thirty-year-old journeyman from the Dominican Republic spent six years bouncing around the majors before landing a full-time gig in Toronto, which he promptly parlayed into a monstrous 54-homer, 124-RBI season.
Talk about a breakout performance!
Of course, with Bautista's story written into the history books, baseball fans are now left to wonder who will be the next no-name player to burst on to the scene.
As such, here are 10 players who, in some way or another, fit the description to be the next Jose Bautista.
