The Atlanta Braves have called up another of their top prospects, Canadian pitcher Mike Soroka, who is scheduled to start Tuesday night’s game against the New York Mets. The 20-year-old right-hander from Calgary gives the Braves the three youngest players in the major leagues. He joins outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr., who is about four months younger than Soroka, and 21-year-old second baseman Ozzie Albies. Soroka was a first-round pick by Atlanta in 2015 and quickly rose through the ranks. Last year, he went 11-8 with a 2.75 ERA for Mississippi in the Double-A Southern League.
