The 2019 Atlanta Braves’ rookie of the year candidates

The system of baseball cranks like an assembly line with fresh, new, young talent every season. We were also treated to the two Rookie of the Year winners for 2018: Atlanta Braves phenom Ronald Acuna Jr. and LA Angels two-way player Shohei Ohtani.

In 2018, baseball fans were also introduced to Juan Soto, Walker Buehler, Gleyber Torres, Miguel Andújar among others.

In 2019, we most likely won’t be seeing another debuting two-way player, but we should be getting some new sluggers in the form of Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Eloy Jimenez and perhaps Austin Riley.
