Braves top prospect, Acuña Jr, already has a glove deal!

Atlanta Braves have a lot to look forward to…believe me or not, but you should jump on the train now.  Most of which comes with top prospect Ronald Acuña Jr.

The 20-year-old is the top prospect not only on the Braves, but in all of Major League Baseball — on most all sites, but MLB Pipeline.  They have Acuña second behind Angels pitcher/hitter Shohei Ohtani.

He’s an exciting hitter and defender…a true five-star caliber player.  On Pipeline, his scouting grades are…

Hit: 60 | Power: 65 | Run: 70 | Arm: 60 | Field: 60 | Overall: 70

The one aspect Pipeline doesn’t grade is glove and how that said glove looks on Acuña Jr.  We’re here to give you that insight.

The 6’0″, 180-pound outfielder has signed a glove deal with SSK Baseball USA.

SSK Baseball not only sells gloves, they have wooden bats, aluminum bats, batting gloves and baseball/softball accessories.

Acuña Jr joins the team at SSK Baseball USA with stars like Robinson Cano, Javier Baez, Noah Syndergaard, Fernando Tatís Jr, Andres Gimenez and other young stars in the sports minor league system.

It’s an up-and-coming company and their stuff looks really good.  Take a look at a few shots of Acuña showing off his new gear.

I may have to put in an order!  If you look good, you play good…right???  I’ll be the star on my adult softball team if I get this stuff! … at least that’s what I’m telling myself.

Look for Acuña Jr to join the Atlanta Braves after the April 13th date.  That’s the first time the Braves are able to call him up and still get that extra year of control

You can buy Acuña Jr’s glove here.  It will only put you back $324.00, but hell, it looks like it’s worth it!
