2025 Fantasy Outlook
Acuna had a .742 OPS in 158 games at Double-A and a .654 OPS in 131 games at Triple-A, but one would have thought he was a top 50 overall prospect based on what he did in his brief big-league debut. Francisco Lindor missed around two weeks in September with a back injury, and Acuna was already on the 40-man roster and a capable shortstop defender, so he was summoned from Triple-A to fill in. He proceeded to hit three home runs in his first week of action, finishing with a .308 average and a 15 percent strikeout rate in 40 plate appearances. The second-oldest of the four Acuna brothers had 40 steals and seven homers in 587 plate appearances at Triple-A, and in reality, steals are the main path to Acuna providing fantasy value at some point in 2025. His ability to add value with his glove all over the diamond could lead to him spending most, or all of the season in the majors, but he projects to be a well below-average hitter (Steamer projects him for a .294 OBP and an 87 wRC+), so it seems unlikely the Mets would go into the year relying on Acuna to play every day.

Signed a one-year contract with the Mets in March of 2025.
Heading back to minors
The Mets optioned Acuna to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.
Analysis
The move was probably overdue, as Acuna has played sparingly over the last month with just five starts since May 24. The 23-year-old will get an opportunity to continue his development at Syracuse while playing every day.

Stat Review
How does Luisangel Acuna compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2021
2020
Acuna was pretty clearly blocked long term in Texas, so a trade was welcomed, but things are still somewhat crowded long term in New York, where he was sent at the deadline for Max Scherzer straight up. One of Ronald Acuna's younger brothers, Luisangel is a 5-foot-8 middle infielder whose game is closer to that of Tommy Edman's than his big brother. His bloodlines are most evident in his bat speed and athleticism, but he needs all of that bat speed to generate his potential 10-15 homer power. He swiped 57 bases on 67 attempts in 121 games at Double-A, and that speed will be the ticket to his long-term fantasy relevance. Acuna was much better (.315/.377/.453, .138 ISO) before the trade than he was after it (.243/.317/.304, .061 ISO), but a lot of that difference can be attributed to a 93-point BABIP dip (.381 to .288) and him moving from the neutral park in Frisco to one of the worst Double-A parks for power in Binghamton. Acuna, who is on the 40-man roster, could be competing long term with Ronny Mauricio and Jett Williams for playing time, although Mauricio's knee surgery and Williams' inexperience make Acuna the best bet for 2024.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
NL's best rookie for March/April
Acuna was named the National League Rookie of the Month for March/April on Friday.
Analysis
The 23-year-old was able to earn a spot on the Opening Day roster, in part due to Jeff McNeil's oblique injury, and the rookie hit the ground running with a .288 average and seven stolen bases in his first 27 games to maintain a regular spot in the lineup. There isn't much meat on the bones as Acuna has just six extra-base hits and a .369 SLG through 94 plate appearances, so his fantasy upside is mostly contained to his speed and strong contact skills.
