Ronald Acuna will be called up in 2 weeks for the Braves. He was sent down to protect the extra year of service

He'd made the roster before the season opener; this is for prospects getting the call afterwards.

Already we have our first name:

2018 Callups
Joey Lucchesi (Padres)

So rare to see a high profile callup without any cards yet. I saw 2 innings of one of his starts this spring and was VERY impressed.

Jaypers · 03-30-2018, 11:36 AM

McKinney added to OP.

KSterner · 03-30-2018, 12:04 PM

Im really, really hoping to see Vlad on this list at some point this year. Nothing invested in him, but I'd love to see what he can do. That swing is unreal.

Jaypers · 03-31-2018, 06:04 PM

Miguel Andujar added.

Firerunner4 · 03-31-2018, 08:57 PM

Clay Holmes called up to Pittsburgh

rwperu34 · 04-01-2018, 07:01 PM

Scott Kingery (Phillies) should probably be on this list

Lionking · 04-01-2018, 07:29 PM

Can you add the date that they were called up in the first post?

I think the Bartolo Colon callup was newsworthy.
