Chicago White Sox: Luisangel Acuna named one of the worst starting MLB centerfielders
The Chicago White Sox have a very young roster full of players that have a great deal to prove in 2026. On the bright side, the team saw a 20-game win improvement from 2024 to 2025, and things really cannot get worse on the South Side than they have been.
Indeed, there are many young players that have the potential to make the White Sox somewhat relevant for the first time in years. Among these is centerfielder Luisangel Acuna, who was acquired by Chicago in the Luis Roberts Jr. trade with the New York Mets.
And while Acuna is having a good Spring Training, he still has been ranked near the bottom of Major League Baseball’s projected starting centerfielders.
Chicago White Sox young star Luisangel Acuna ranked near bottom of MLB’s starting centerfielders
In a recent article in which they rank the projected starting centerfielders in Major League Baseball, Bleacher Report listed Acuna as the 28th-best out of 30:
“Acuña has a top prospect pedigree and is coming off a terrific performance in the Venezuelan Winter League where he posted a .939 OPS with 18 extra-base hits and 12 steals in 39 games. The White Sox acquired him in the deal that sent Luis Robert Jr. to the Mets, and he is competing with Brooks Baldwin for the starting center field job this spring. The 23-year-old is out of minor league options, so he is a safe bet to be on the roster in some capacity.”
As noted above, since Acuna is out of minor league options, he is likely going to be on the Major League roster coming out of Spring Training. That being said, his performance this spring warrants his inclusion on the roster anyway. So far, he is hitting .429/.478/.619 with a home run, three RBI, and two stolen bases in eight games played.
Acuna exceeded his rookie status last year in 95 games played with the Mets. In parts of two Major League seasons, he has hit .248/.299/.341 with three home runs and 14 RBI.
