Swipes fourth bag Sunday
Acuna went 2-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Blue Jays.
Analysis
Acuna singled in each of his first two plate appearances, stealing a base in the second inning and scoring a run in the fourth. The 24-year-old has now hit safely in five straight games, going 4-for-4 on stolen-base attempts during that stretch. Overall, he's 7-for-26 with four runs scored to open the season, though all of his hits have been singles.

Tallies third steal
Acuna went 1-for-3 with a stolen base Friday against the Blue Jays.
Analysis
Acuna has alternated starts at shortstop and center field, but he has been in the lineup for six of Chicago's seven games this season. He has at least one hit in three consecutive appearances, and his stolen base Friday marked his third of the season. Acuna has yet to log an extra-base hit, so his counting stats are likely to remain limited, but he does appear to have a green light on the basepaths.

Another start at shortstop
Acuna will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Wednesday's contest versus the Marlins.
Analysis
It's the third start at shortstop already this season for Acuna, who has also made two starts in center field. Colson Montgomery is at third base for the White Sox on Wednesday. The 24-year-old Acuna is currently eligible only at second base on most fantasy platforms, but he's on track to pick up eligibility at shortstop and outfield soon. Acuna is 2-for-12 with a 1:1 BB:K and two stolen bases in his first four games this season.
