We are all going to have our group of untouchables. Best part is that its hard to argue with anyones list. These guys are all really damn good.

For me I'd substitute Allard for Touki but its real close.

I've just read to many scout splits on Allards potential

Not slamming your viewpoint on Albies, but he hit .248/.307/.351 in 247 AAA at bats last year. He's a whole lot less interesting when he projects to pedestrian offensive ability.

You think he'll figure it out, I do, too, but he might be Nick Ahmed, not Jose Altuve.

Uh, ok...but he doesn't project to pedestrian offensive ability.

The specific article I was looking for I couldn't find. It was a ranked list of our spects with current and future grades. Weren't too fond on Allard. I stil love him I just love Touki more. The article was on this board but I couldn't find it.

Trust me...I had a crush on that pitching staff....I get it. I have a feeling if we want Sale, one of us will be really crushed. That Rome team was my favorite team ever outside of the "great 8."
 
Ronald Acuna played in a double-header yesterday.

He is now batting .319 with 2 HR, 10 RBI, and 8 SB in 47 ABs. 2 BB to 11 K.

The guy is good. I'm sure he's being asked about. I could trade Riley but would be ecstatic if we keep Maitan, Acuna, Pache and Cruz.
 
I wonder how aggressive they're planning to be with Acuna. He handled Low A pretty well last year, so if they want to be aggressive like they were with Albies, I would if they consider just starting Acuna at High A with a chance to finish the year in Double A.

Not sure what I would do, but he seems like a talent that could handle being pushed.

I could see him actually starting in Rome just because of his abbreviated playing time last year but after that I'm sure the Braves will be aggressive.

I think its a tremendous sign of how the Braves view him if he is in the FSL at the start of next year.

I think it'd be wise to start him in Rome given the reps he lost due to his injury last year, but if he comes out and dominates then a quick promotion would be in order.
