    I don't pay attention to MiLB that much but I didn't realize they are comparing Acuna to Andruw Jones. One article I read even had Chipper saying that was who he reminded him of. So we will probably see him in September I guess.

    I've seen Albies play cf at pearl. He may compare with the bat, but he isn't in the same universe with the glove... of course, who is? I think acuna is a RF and absolutely smashes on offense

    Despite the errors, fangraphs and baseball reference have dansby as a plus defender. Once he cleans up the dumb errors (he will), he's gonna be quite good at SS

    Sorry, should have included some ***. Dansby is going to be good but he is also a normal rookie. You can't look at Belinger and Judge and think that are the ways rookies are supposed to show up.

    Like I said earlier I have watched every game that Acuna has played against Biloxi. He was all over outfield making play of the day catches every game. Yes he did make a few Andrew Jones type catches. And unlike Chipper he will gladly give you autographs and talk to you. Allard and Gothra are also very approachable.

    Dansby has been dealing with a back injury all season.
