Can this board's moderators please get the bickering and constant ridicule on both sides under control? Really takes away from the quality of the boards.

I was mainly going for what we might expect from Acuna at the major league level. I agree with your points, but Sosa was clearly a different player at the major league level at age 24+ than as a minor leaguer... Obviously you don't think Acuna is going to hit more homeruns than Sosa in his career.
Wasn't there some poster here that went to the Soroka game... We better get a full report in the morning or his butt is fired..

The Danville lineup of Waters, Cruz, Contreras, Maitian, Lugbauer, and Baez looks good
I think Wentz is a very good prospect, but one thing that might be holding him back is the Braves are really being careful with his innings. He's averaging less than 5 innings per start and while his numbers are solid, he's not blowing people up. Curious to see if he makes the SAL Top 20 at the end of the year (he should) and what the scouting press says about him.

Wentz's last 5 starts have been pretty dominant. He has 28 IP (5.6 average), 2 ER, 0.64 ERA, 36 Ks, 9 BBs, 15 H.
That's about as dominant as you can be. Add in the fact that he's a 6-5 lefty and you have the makings of an elite pitching prospect.
I've said it plenty of times before but it bears repeating: Wentz > Anderson
i'm super excited about Soroka and Gohara.
Wentz, Anderson, Soroka, Gohara, and Wilson are the hottest names in Braves pitching at the moment.
I guess Sims too. Hopefully he gets his shot in Atlanta very soon.
Flash trivia question. Does Soroka have more starts with 0 walks than he does starts with 1 or more walks in AA this year? Obviously don't look it up first.
