Acquired via trade from the Rangers in December 2024
November 2025 update: Acosta was a highly touted amateur signing out of Venezuela back in 2019. During the second half of 2024, he finally started living up to the hype thanks to improved plate discipline and swing adjustments. However, his strikeout rate doubled in 2025 with the bump up from Double-A to Triple-A. Throughout his professional career, Acosta has posted large reverse platoon splits, performing significantly better versus right-handed pitching—that held true during his first taste of MLB competition. The 23-year-old is a plus runner.
Acosta could potentially be an average defender at shortstop long term. He has also made starts at second base during every season of his career. This past year, in both the majors and Venezuelan winter ball, he gained some experience at third base.
Acosta has two minor league options remaining entering 2026.
