MLB Network released its annual “Top 100 Players” list this week and for Atlanta Braves fans, it’s no surprise which player is ranked No. 1.
Reigning National League Most Valuable Player Ronald Acuña Jr. took the top spot in the 2024 rankings. He beat out Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts, Yankees centerfield Aaron Judge, Dodgers pitcher Shohei Ohtani and former teammate and current Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman.
MLB Network called Acuña “the most electric player in the game.”
