We already know that Jesus Sanchez hit the longest home run in 2024, traveling 480 feet. But which sluggers hit the longest home run for each MLB team this past season? As you’ll see below, I’ve divided the teams up by division. We’ll go AL East, Central, and West before going in the same order for the NL.

This was the topic of discussion in a recent email I sent to my subscribers. If you’d like to see content like this before anyone else does, make sure you sign up to join my Substack by signing up below.

Longest Home Run in 2024 for Every Team

American League East

Baltimore Orioles

Colton Cowser and Ryan Mountcastle: 443 Feet

Nothing like a good old-fashioned tie to start things off, right? Cowser finished his rookie year with 24 homers and 69 RBI in 561 plate appearances for Baltimore.

Mountcastle has seen his power production dip since hitting 33 as a rookie in 2021. That was followed by 22 in 2022, 18 in 2023, and 13 in 2024. Here’s his tape-measure dinger (it’s the second one):

Boston Red Sox

Rafael Devers: 467 Feet

Raffy finished with 28 homers and 83 RBI for Boston. It’s his sixth season of 20-plus homers and fourth year in a row surpassing that benchmark. He finished 2024 with 200 career homers on the dot.

New York Yankees

Aaron Judge: 477 Feet

We all knew this was coming, right? Judge led baseball with 58 home runs. It’s now the third (!) time he’s surpassed the 50-homer plateau since his 2017 Rookie of the Year campaign.

Tampa Bay Rays

Jose Siri: 452 Feet

While he posted a .620 OPS that was accompanied by a .187 average, Siri knows how to celebrate tanks. He finished 2024 with 18 homers after slugging a career-high 25 in 2023.

Toronto Blue Jays

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.: 471 Feet

The 2024 season was Vlad Jr.’s fourth in a row with at least 26 homers. After taking a brief hiatus in 2023, he returned to the 30-homer plateau this year with 30 on the dot for Toronto.

American League Central

Chicago White Sox

Luis Robert Jr.: 470 Feet

Robert has been in the big leagues for five seasons. He slugged a career-high 38 homers in 2023 while playing in a career-high 145 games. In the other four years, he hasn’t appeared in more than 100 games or hit more than 14 homers.

Cleveland Guardians

Jose Ramirez: 451 Feet

J-Ram was just two extra-base hits away from a 40-40-40 season. Instead, he finished with 39 homers, 41 steals, and 39 doubles. Still pretty baller, if you ask me.

Detroit Tigers

Spencer Torkelson: 446 Feet

It looked like Torkelson was on the verge of breaking out in 2023 after hitting 31 homers with 94 RBI. He appeared in just 92 games this season, which led to 10 homers and 37 RBI for Detroit.

Kansas City Royals

Bobby Witt Jr.: 468 Feet

If it wasn’t for that Aaron Judge guy, Bobby Witt Jr. would be the easy choice to win AL MVP. He led the league in batting average (.332) and hits (211) while joining the 30-30 club for the second straight year and setting new career-high marks for doubles (45) and RBI (109).

Minnesota Twins

Byron Buxton: 456 Feet

I’d still love to see what Buxton could do in a full season. He’s been in the league since 2015 and has played in more than 110 games just once (140 in 2017). The outfielder appeared in 102 contests this year while collecting 18 homers and 56 RBI.

Yeah, this is officially, officially a Byron Buxton absolute heater.

He just hit a baseball to Flagstaff.

American League West

Athletics

Lawrence Butler: 457 Feet

After hitting four homers in 42 games as a rookie in 2022, Lawrence Butler slugged 24 in 125 games this year. He also enjoyed a pair of three-homer games for the Athletics.

Houston Astros

Yordan Alvarez: 461 Feet

Yordan Alvarez hit two baseballs exactly 461 feet in 2024, and he did it in the same game! It was during the Mexico City Series. He finished the year with 35 homers and 86 RBI, now bringing his current streak of 30-homer seasons to four.

Los Angeles Angels

Mike Trout: 473 Feet

Can we get a fully healthy Mike Trout again any time soon? I hope so. He appeared in just 29 games but still managed to slug 10 homers before his year prematurely ended.

Seattle Mariners

Luke Raley: 459 Feet

After getting dealt from the Rays to Seattle last winter, Raley set new career-high marks in homers (22), RBI (58), and runs scored (58) with the Mariners.

Texas Rangers

Corey Seager: 457 Feet

The Rangers have been able to plug Corey Seager into their lineup for three years now. He’s never finished a season with fewer than 30 homers (33 in 2022 and 2023, 30 in 2024).

Longest Home Run in 2024 for Every Team

National League East

Atlanta Braves

Ronald Acuña Jr.: 461 Feet

Even before he went down with another ACL tear, Ronald Acuña Jr. had a hard time getting himself going, posting a .765 OPS before hitting the injured list. He found a way to get himself right against the Mets, though. The below dinger was one of four he hit for the year.

Miami Marlins

Jesus Sanchez: 480 Feet

This was the longest home run of the 2024 MLB season. Sanchez also finished the year with career-high marks in homers (18), RBI (64), and runs scored (60) for Miami.

New York Mets

Pete Alonso: 471 Feet

Although finishing with 34 homers and 88 RBI seems like a down year for Alonso, that’s quite a bit of production. He’s racked up four seasons of 30-plus homers for the Mets. His 226 career homers are already third all-time in franchise history.

Philadelphia Phillies

Trea Turner: 459 Feet

Of all the sluggers Philly boasts, can you believe the longest homer of the year came from Trea Turner? I couldn’t believe it, either. He finished with 21 dingers in 121 games played. It was the fourth season in a row Turner surpassed the 20-homer mark.

Washington Nationals

Joey Gallo: 447 Feet

This was Gallo’s first homer in a Nationals uniform — talk about making a good first impression. It didn’t last, though. He hit just 10 homers with a .613 OPS in 223 at-bats.

National League Central

Chicago Cubs

Michael Busch: 468 Feet

Busch’s first full season in the big leagues was a solid one. He slugged 21 homers with 65 RBI and a .775 OPS for Chicago.

Cincinnati Reds

Rece Hinds: 458 Feet

I love looking at the stark contrast between Rece Hinds’ Triple-A and MLB numbers. He hit .208/.282/.376 in 422 plate appearances in the minors. But in the Bigs, the right-handed hitter slashed .261/.333/.717 in 51 plate appearances…with some incredible highlights to boot.

Milwaukee Brewers

Jackson Chourio: 449 Feet

Despite being a 20-year-old rookie, Jackson Chourio got the job done for the Brewers. He posted a 20-20 season (21 homers, 22 steals) while driving in 79 runs.

Pittsburgh Pirates

Oneil Cruz: 472 Feet

The 2024 season was Cruz’s first campaign of 100-plus games for the Pirates. He suited up for 146 contests while slugging 21 homers with 76 RBI. It’ll be fun to watch this exit velocity merchant continue to build upon his progress as a 26-year-old.

St. Louis Cardinals

Pedro Pages: 462 Feet

Pages hit seven homers in 68 games as a rookie for the Cardinals. But he made good use of his opportunity by hitting one of the longest home runs of the season.

National League West

Arizona Diamondbacks

Christian Walker: 464 Feet

Walker is hitting free agency after proving he can do it all for interested teams. He just won his third straight Gold Glove Award while posting his third straight year of at least 26 homers.

Colorado Rockies

Sam Hilliard: 476 Feet

Hilliard hasn’t hit more than 14 homers in a season (2021). Before he slugged 10 in 2024, the outfielder accumulated just five in 110 total games from 2022-23. So naturally, he’s going to show up here. Baseball, man.

Los Angeles Dodgers

Shohei Ohtani: 476 Feet

Yeah — everyone knows this guy, too. All Ohtani did this year was join the 40-40 club faster than everyone else, establish the 50-50 club, and set the Dodgers’ new single-season home run record with 54 taters. Oh, and he won a World Series. Not a bad year.

San Diego Padres

Fernando Tatis Jr.: 448 Feet

Name something you love more than Fernando Tatis Jr. loves hitting tanks at Dodger Stadium. He was limited to 102 games but still slugged 21 homers with a .833 OPS for San Diego.

San Francisco Giants

Jorge Soler: 478 Feet

Soler signed a three-year, $42 million deal to be a major power source for San Francisco. He was only there for 93 games before getting traded to the Atlanta Braves ahead of the deadline. Soler managed to hit 12 homers with 40 RBI, including this absolute tank right before he bounced.
