ATLANTA - When it comes to baseball, Atlanta Braves star Ronald Acuña Jr. is in a class all by himself.
On Wednesday, Acuna was named the MLB Network's best player in their Top 100 list for 2024.
The honor makes sense. Last season, Acuña was second in the NL with a .336 batting average and led the major leagues with 149 runs, 217 hits, 386 total bases and 73 stolen bases while hitting 41 home runs with 106 RBIs. A four-time All-Star who turns 26 next month, Acuña helped Atlanta to a major league-best 104 wins before the Braves lost to Philadelphia in the NL Division Series.
