    I think guys like fried and acuna have already broken out. Some of you need to go out on a limb here!

    Acuna only had 179 PAs last season. Hard to breakout in that small a sample. If he does it over a full season this year he'll jump to elite status.

    He will be a top 100 prospect nationally. I guess it's semantics but I just don't think those guys need to break out.

    But by this time next year acuna could definitely be a top 10 prospect in baseball

    Bryse Wilson is another guy who I think will be consistently overshadowed but will have a breakout year in rome.
