The Major League Baseball Comeback Player of the Year Award is presented by Major League Baseball (MLB) to the player who is judged to have "re-emerged on the baseball field during a given season."[1] The award was developed in 2005, as part of a sponsorship agreement between MLB and Viagra.[1] In 2005 and 2006 representatives from MLB and MLB.com selected six candidates each from the American (AL) and National Leagues (NL) and one winner for each league was selected via an online poll on MLB.com.[1][2] Since then, the winners have been selected by a panel of MLB beat reporters.[3][4][5] Under the current voting structure, first place votes are worth five points, second place votes worth three, and third place votes worth one with the award going to the player with the most points overall.[6] Past winners have often overcome injury or personal problems en route to their award-winning season.

A Comeback Player of the Year Award has been given by The Sporting News since 1965 but its results are not officially recognized by Major League Baseball. Since the beginning of the MLB award in 2005, the recipients have been identical with the following exceptions: 2008 NL (TSN honored Fernando Tatís, MLB honored Brad Lidge), 2010 AL (TSN honored Vladimir Guerrero, MLB honored Francisco Liriano), 2012 AL (TSN honored Adam Dunn, MLB honored Fernando Rodney), 2016 (TSN honored Jose Fernandez and Mark Trumbo, MLB honored Anthony Rendon and Rick Porcello), 2018 NL (TSN honored Matt Kemp, MLB honored Jonny Venters), 2019 AL (TSN honored Hunter Pence, MLB honored Carlos Carrasco), and 2020 AL (TSN honored Carrasco, MLB honored Salvador Pérez). Liriano and Posey are the only players to win the MLB award multiple times with Liriano being the first to win it in each league.

Twelve players were named to the Major League Baseball All-Star team in their Comeback Award-winning season: Jim Thome, Nomar Garciaparra, Dmitri Young, Cliff Lee, Brad Lidge, Aaron Hill, Tim Hudson, Lance Berkman, Jacoby Ellsbury, Buster Posey, Fernando Rodney, and Mariano Rivera, with Posey also being named to the All-MLB Team. Two players who were not named to the All-Star team in their winning year—Jason Giambi and Ken Griffey Jr.—were named to the All-Star team in their previous season. Several winners have won other awards in their winning season. Carlos Peña, Posey, Ellsbury, Griffey, and Hill won the Silver Slugger Award along with the Comeback Award. Posey won the NL MVP in his first comeback season. Lee won the Cy Young Award in his winning season and Lidge won both the Rolaids Relief Man Award and Delivery Man of the Year Award the same year. Rodney was also named Delivery Man of the Year in his comeback 2012 season. The most recent winners are Chris Sale of the NL and Garrett Crochet of the AL.

2005 Jason Giambi A man in a grey baseball uniform and navy blue batting helmet swings through a pitch. New York Yankees First baseman/
Designated hitter 		Giambi underwent knee surgery before the 2004 season.[7] He also endured a variety of health problems during the season including an inflamed knee, a respiratory infection, an intestinal parasite infection, and a benign pituitary tumor.[8] As a result, Giambi appeared in just 80 games during the 2004 regular season, batting .208.[9] He returned to the Yankees in 2005 and led the American League in walks (108) and on-base percentage (.440).[9][10]
2006 Jim Thome A man in a grey baseball uniform with "Chicago" on his chest in black with a black cap, black batting gloves, and a baseball bat under his arm. Chicago White Sox Designated hitter Thome experienced multiple elbow injuries during the 2005 season; appeared in just 59 regular season games, batting .205; and was traded to the White Sox from the Philadelphia Phillies in the offseason.[11][12] Thome was elected to the All-Star team in 2006, finishing the season with 42 home runs and 109 runs batted in.[2][12]
2007 Carlos Peña A man in a grey baseball uniform with "Rays" on the chest and "TB" on his blue batting helmet winces as he stops his swing. Tampa Bay Devil Rays First baseman Pena was released by the Detroit Tigers before the 2006 season. He signed with the New York Yankees, but never appeared in a Major League game for them and was released on August 16, 2006.[13] Finally the Boston Red Sox signed Pena and he appeared in just 18 Major League games,[13] spending the bulk of time in the minor leagues.[14] In 2007 Pena set Tampa Bay franchise records in home runs (46), runs batted in (121), and walks (103)[15] and won the Devil Rays' first Silver Slugger Award.[16]
2008 Cliff Lee A man in a grey baseball uniform with a blue cap throws a baseball. Cleveland Indians Starting pitcher Lee pitched 971⁄3 innings in the Majors in 2007, going 5–8 with a 6.29 earned run average (ERA). He missed the first month of the season with an abdominal strain and was sent to the Triple-A minor league Buffalo Bisons mid-season. In 2008, he pitched 2231⁄3 innings, went 22–3 with a 2.54 ERA,[17] and won the Cy Young Award.[18]
2009 Aaron Hill A man in grey a baseball uniform with "Toronto" and "2" on the jersey and a black cap with the Toronto Blue Jays logo on it. Toronto Blue Jays Second baseman On May 29, 2008, Hill collided with former Blue Jays shortstop David Eckstein while fielding a fly ball and suffered a serious concussion.[19] He did not return to the Majors that season.[20] The injury was severe enough that Blue Jays manager Cito Gaston commented that "[s]ometimes people don't come back from concussions."[19] Hill did return in 2009, however, hitting 36 home runs (third most ever by an American League second baseman)[19] with 108 runs batted in; he led the American League in plate appearances and made the 2009 All-Star team.[21] Hill also won the Silver Slugger Award at second base.[22]
2010 Francisco Liriano Minnesota Twins Starting pitcher Liriano missed the entire 2007 season due to Tommy John surgery and was limited by injuries the next two years, including a stint on the disabled list during the 2009 season.[23][24] In 2010, however, Liriano threw the second-most innings of any pitcher for the Minnesota Twins, led the team in ERA, and allowed the fewest home runs per nine innings of any pitcher in the AL (0.4).[25][26]
2011 Jacoby Ellsbury A young man in a grey baseball jersey wearing a batting helmet with eyeblack under his eyes. Boston Red Sox Outfielder In 2010, Ellsbury only played in 18 games after breaking three ribs in a fielding collision with Adrián Beltré. In 2011, Ellsbury was the first Red Sox player and one of four Major Leaguers (the most in a single season) to record 30 homers and 30 stolen bases, and he posted career highs in nearly every offensive category. The center fielder hit .321 with 32 homers, 105 RBIs, 39 steals, 46 doubles, five triples, and 119 runs, and he led the Majors with 364 total bases and 83 extra-base hits.[5][27]
2012 Fernando Rodney Tampa Bay Rays Relief pitcher Rodney battled ineffectiveness in 2011, blowing four saves and being replaced by Jordan Walden as closer of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. In 2012, Rodney became the Rays' closer after Kyle Farnsworth went on the disabled list, and compiled 48 saves (second-most in the American League, only behind Jim Johnson of the Baltimore Orioles) in 50 opportunities while being named to the AL All-Star team and recording an earned run average (ERA) of 0.60, the second lowest in a single season by any pitcher in MLB history (min. 50 IP).[28]
2013 Mariano Rivera New York Yankees Relief pitcher Prior to a game on May 3, 2012, Rivera suffered a season-ending injury by tearing the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee, after twisting his leg while shagging balls in batting practice.[29][30] Speculation grew that the injury would end his career, as he had hinted at retirement in spring training,[31][32] but Rivera said that he intended to return.[33] After undergoing ACL reconstructive surgery,[34] he rehabilitated his leg in time to return for the 2013 season, which he announced would be his last.[30] In his farewell season, the 43-year-old Rivera saved 44 games in 51 opportunities, with a 2.11 ERA and 1.05 WHIP.[35][36]
2014 Chris Young Seattle Mariners Starting pitcher Young didn't pitch in the majors in 2013, as thoracic outlet syndrome limited him to just nine starts in the Washington Nationals minor league system. The condition was so acute that the pain had Young considering retirement before it was ultimately surgically corrected in the 2013 offseason.[37] Released by the Nationals at the tail end of 2014 spring training, Young signed with the Mariners and experienced a resurgence, being one of the team's most reliable starting pitchers. For the season, Young went 12–9 with a 3.65 earned run average.[38]
2015 Prince Fielder Texas Rangers Designated hitter Fielder played only 42 games in 2014 before having season-ending neck surgery. He bounced back strong in 2015, hitting .305/.378/.463 with 23 homers and 98 RBI in 158 games.[39]
2016 Rick Porcello Boston Red Sox Starting pitcher Porcello ended 2015 with a 9–15 record and an ERA of 4.92. He pitched only 172 innings and had a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 3.92. In 2016, Porcello won the AL Cy Young Award going 22–4 with an ERA of 3.15 and pitching 223 innings, while leading the major leagues with a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 5.91.[40]
2017 Mike Moustakas Kansas City Royals Third baseman In 2016, Moustakas only played in 27 games after tearing his ACL in a fielding collision with Alex Gordon. In 2017, he played in 148 games and batted .272, and hit a career-high 38 home runs.
2018 David Price Boston Red Sox Starting pitcher In 2017, Price made only 16 appearances (11 starts) due to elbow injuries, in which he was 6–3 with a 3.38 ERA. In 2018, he was 16–7 with a 3.58 ERA in 30 starts and was instrumental in Boston's eventual World Series championship.[41]
2019 Carlos Carrasco Cleveland Indians Pitcher In 2019, Carrasco was diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia in early June and missed three months while undergoing treatment before returning to game action in September.[42]
2020 Salvador Pérez Kansas City Royals Catcher Perez missed the entire 2019 season due to Tommy John Surgery. He also missed the start of "Summer Camp in July" – after testing positive for COVID-19 – and another three weeks during the season because of a lingering eye issue that caused blurred vision. He posted career highs in batting average (.333), slugging percentage (.633), and OPS (.986) while racking up 11 home runs and 32 RBIs in 37 games.[43]
2021 Trey Mancini Baltimore Orioles Outfielder Mancini missed the entire 2020 season after being diagnosed with stage III colon cancer. After the season ended, Mancini announced he was cancer-free and returned to the Orioles. In 2021, he hit 21 home runs with 71 RBIs.
2022 Justin Verlander Houston Astros Pitcher Verlander made one start in 2020 before being shut down and missing the remainder of the season, as well as all of the 2021 season due to Tommy John Surgery. After missing the better part of two years, Verlander posted an 18–4 record and a major league-leading 1.75 ERA, leading the Astros to a World Series championship and winning his third career Cy Young Award.[44]
2023 Liam Hendriks Chicago White Sox Pitcher Hendriks was diagnosed with Stage 4 non-Hodgkin lymphoma in December 2022. He went through treatment in the off-season and returned to the mound on May 29. His 2023 season was cut short in August when he tore his UCL, which would require Tommy John Surgery. He finished the 2023 season with a 2–0 record with one save and a 5.40 ERA.[45]
2024 Garrett Crochet Chicago White Sox Pitcher Crochet missed the entire 2022 season and was limited to 13 appearances in 2023 while recovering from a partial left-elbow UCL tear and Tommy John Surgery. He finished the 2024 season with a 6–12 record with a 3.58 ERA and 209 strikeouts across 146 innings pitched, setting new career highs.[46]

2005 Ken Griffey Jr. A man in a grey baseball uniform with red sleeves and a red hat with a white "C" on it. Cincinnati Reds Center fielder Griffey experienced several serious injuries from 2000 to 2004 including a torn hamstring, a torn knee tendon, a dislocated shoulder, and torn ankle tissue.[8] His torn hamstring required major surgery in August 2004. He appeared in only 83 games in the 2004 season.[8][47] Griffey returned in 2005, batted .301, and hit 35 home runs (his most in a season since 2000).[47]
2006 Nomar Garciaparra Portrait of a man wearing a blue baseball cap with "LA" on it and sunglasses over it. Los Angeles Dodgers First baseman Garciaparra tore his groin while running out of the batter's box on April 20, 2005, and went on the disabled list.[48] He did not play in another Major League game until August 5[49] and appeared in only 62 games that season.[50] In 2006 Garciaparra batted .303, made the All-Star team, and made only four errors despite playing first base for the first time in his career.[2]
2007 Dmitri Young A man in a white baseball uniform with a red baseball cap and black glove plays in the field. Washington Nationals First baseman Young experienced several personal issues throughout the 2006 season, including a divorce, treatment for substance abuse and depression, and pleading guilty to assaulting his girlfriend. He was also released by the Detroit Tigers during the season,[51] appearing in only 48 games in the 2006 season.[52] Young ended the 2007 season with a .320 batting average, which ranked 8th in the National League, and was named to the 2007 All-Star team.[52][53]
2008 Brad Lidge A man in grey pants, a blue baseball jersey, and a red baseball cap with "P" on it jogs in the field Philadelphia Phillies Relief pitcher In 2006 and 2007, Lidge had 14 blown saves and a 4.37 earned run average (ERA) for the Houston Astros. Some attributed this lesser performance to a game-winning home run Albert Pujols hit off of him in Game 5 of the 2005 National League Championship Series.[54][55] In 2008, Lidge had a 1.95 ERA and converted 41 saves in 41 save chances,[55][56] winning both the Rolaids Relief Man Award and the Delivery Man of the Year Award.[57][58] He would also convert all seven save opportunities in the postseason en route to winning the 2008 World Series.
2009 Chris Carpenter A man in a grey baseball uniform stands bent over with his right leg in the air having just pitched the ball to home plate. St. Louis Cardinals Starting pitcher Carpenter experienced several injuries including elbow surgery and Tommy John Surgery in the 2007 season followed by shoulder surgery in the 2008 season,[6] allowing him to pitch just six innings in 2007 and 151⁄3 in 2008. In 2009, however, Carpenter posted a 17–4 record over 1922⁄3 innings with a 2.24 earned run average (ERA),[59] the lowest ERA in the National League that year.[60]
2010 Tim Hudson Atlanta Braves Starting pitcher Hudson suffered an elbow injury in 2008 requiring Tommy John Surgery which kept him out for nearly a full season, returning to start a handful of games at the end of 2009. In 2010, however, Hudson pitched the full season for the Atlanta Braves. Hudson ranked in the league's top ten in wins (17, ranking 4th), innings pitched (2282⁄3, 4th), winning percentage (.654, 4th), ERA (2.83, 6th), and WHIP (1.15, 9th.)[23][61][62] Additionally, Hudson was named to the 2010 Major League Baseball All-Star Game.[62]

2012 Buster Posey San Francisco Giants Catcher/First baseman Posey suffered a fractured fibula and torn ligaments in his ankle after a home-plate collision with Florida Marlins outfielder Scott Cousins on May 25, 2011. He had surgery to repair the damage and did not play at all for the rest of the 2011 season.

2013 Francisco Liriano Pittsburgh Pirates Starting pitcher In 2012, Liriano struggled with the Minnesota Twins, recording a 5.31 ERA for the team. By July, he was traded to the Chicago White Sox, where he continued to underwhelm. He eventually was removed from the White Sox' starting rotation in September. After joining the Pirates in the offseason, in 2013, Liriano had one of his best seasons, finishing with a 3.02 ERA, 16–8 record, and 163 strikeouts in 161 innings pitched, helping Pittsburgh make the postseason for the first time since 1992.[36] Having previously won the award with the Twins in 2010, Liriano became the first player to win the award twice, as well as the only player to have won the award in both leagues.

2021 Buster Posey San Francisco Giants Catcher Posey earned NL Comeback Player honors after opting out of the shortened 2020 season. Despite winning the award and also being named to the All-MLB second team, Posey decided to retire after the 2021 season to spend more time with his family.
2022 Albert Pujols St. Louis Cardinals Designated Hitter After being designated for assignment by the Los Angeles Angels in 2021 and entering his final season at age 42, Pujols turned back the clock by hitting 24 home runs, 18 of which came in the second half of the season, and posting a .895 OPS with the Cardinals. Pujols also became the fourth player in Major League history to hit 700 career home runs.[44]
2023 Cody Bellinger Chicago Cubs Outfielder / First baseman After winning the 2019 NL MVP for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Bellinger struggled for the final three years and the Dodgers non-tendered his contract making him a free agent. Signing with the Cubs in 2023 he finished the season with a slash line of .307/.356/.525, 26 home runs, and 97 RBI.[45]
