Acuna is the best prospect in the business. I know Vlad Jr. will get plenty of nods, but no one has taken the game by storm like this guy. We're looking at Andrew Jones 2.0

I'm a Braves fan so I'm obviously going to agree with you and I've watched quiet a few Braves prospects come through the system in the last few years who I've overrated but when I watch Acuna I see something special I haven't seen in a prospect in a very long time, especially one in the Braves organization (Andruw Jones is a perfect example btw). The last prospect I've seen with such an advanced approach to the game at such a young age with all the tools at his disposal was probably Bryce Harper.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is awesome too. Will probably have more power than Acuna but lacks a couple of the tools Acuna displays (speed, defense). I'm betting on most, if not all, the top scouts next year to have either Acuna or Vladdy ranked as their #1 overall prospect. If any of them don't, it will be Eloy Jimenez.

Is Gleyber more talented than Correa?

I've seen both play in person. Give me Correa over Gleyber any day.

I doubt it. Gleyber is certainly talented and has a huge ceiling but Correa had a much more advanced hit tool when he was Gleyber's age. I don't see him hitting for as much power either.

Gleyber will remain top 5 on all the early 2018 rankings but having to undergo TJ surgery will probably keep him from the #1 spot.

Regardless what the order is of the top 5 prospects in 2018 I believe it will consist of all international players under the age of 21. Acuna, Guerrero, Jimenez, Torres & Robles.

Fried & Riley up to their old tricks again.

Acuna is 1-for-3 with a walk & 2 runs scored (leads AFL with 17)

Braves AFL offense leading the way...

Ronald Acuna: .378 avg 3 HR 9 RBI 1.122 OPS
Austin Riley: .345 avg 3 HR 13 RBI 1.217 OPS
Alex Jackson: .348 avg 5 HR 13 RBI 1.139 OPS

Acuna leads the AFL with 17 runs scored (top 3 in hits, HR, total bases, OBP)
Austin Riley leads the AFL with a .793 slg% & 1.217 OPS (top 3 in HR, RBI)
Alex Jackson leads the AFL with 5 home runs & 34 total bases (top 3 in RBI, runs, slg%)

Max Fried leads the AFL in wins (3), strikeouts (23), Innings Pitched (19) & ERA among starters (0.47)

Wow, Austin Riley BC autos have just hit an all-time high. Active auctions of base autographs are exceeding $40 & a green refractor auto almost sold for $150. May be the perfect opportunity for me to sell some of mine so I can pick up more Acuna & Eloy BC autos.
