Overall: The younger brother of Braves superstar Ronald, Luisangel Acuna was signed as part of the Rangers 2018 J2 class. The Venezuelan born prospect was signed for $425,000 and has a stance that nearly perfectly emulates his older brother. Has a similar leg kick, the same exceptional balance and a similar finish to his swing. Acuna has average raw power presently and while the power is not close to what his brother produces, he may have a stronger hit tool when compared to his brother at the same age. Ronald went through a physical transformation though and there's some hope that same thing may happen here. Defensively he lacks a true position, but does seem to have the skills you want in someone that will stay on the dirt. Without a growth spurt I see him as a second baseman with an average hit tool and fringy power.
