Liam Hendriks, the talented closer for the White Sox, faced a daunting challenge when he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in January. Despite this setback, Hendriks remained determined to beat cancer and return to the mound. After undergoing Tommy John surgery and intense rehabilitation, he made his season debut in May, defying the odds and showcasing his unwavering resilience.

Hendriks' remarkable comeback not only earned him the Comeback Player of the Year award but also highlighted his status as one of the game's elite relievers. As he enters free agency, teams will undoubtedly be eager to secure his services, knowing that he has the potential to make a significant impact once he fully recovers in 2025.

Discover Cody Bellinger's journey from being a rising star to facing struggles and ultimately finding redemption in the National League.

Cody Bellinger burst onto the scene, winning both the NL Rookie of the Year and NL MVP awards at a young age. However, his performance took a nosedive in the following seasons, leaving fans and experts puzzled. The Dodgers' decision to non-tender him in December further added to the uncertainty surrounding his career.

But Bellinger proved his doubters wrong when he joined the Cubs on a one-year deal. He experienced a resurgence, showcasing his skills with an impressive batting average, power hitting, and solid defense. Bellinger's remarkable comeback has once again established him as a sought-after player in the free agency market, poised to secure a lucrative contract.
