Most notable among these is AJ Smith-Shawver, who we rated as the top prospect in the system on our preseason top 30 list.
JP Martinez is the only position player member of the Braves 40 man roster that isn't in the major leagues, and leads the Gwinnett outfield.
Pitching for the Stripers is by far the most entertaining part of the team, with Darius Vines getting the opening day start.
AJ Smith-Shawver was pushed quickly to Triple-A last season, and the cracks showed a bit in his ten starts at the level. He had an ERA of 4.17 and most notably his walk rate ballooned to 15.2% and acts as his focus this season.
