Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr is the leading vote-getter in all of baseball, with 1,086,537 votes. The top six outfielders for the National League team include Mookie Betts of the Dodgers (676,491), Lourdes Gurriel Jr of the Diamondbacks (367,348), Juan Soto of the Padres (339,009), Corbin Carroll of the Diamondbacks (232,565), and Fernando Tatis Jr of the Padres (207,474).  

Just outside of a roster spot in preliminary voting in 7th place is Braves centerfielder Michael Harris II, with 192,261, while DH Marcell Ozuna, listed as an outfielder on the ballot, is 11th at 163,104. 

Leading all catchers is Sean Murphy, with 603,501 votes. The backup on the team, if preliminary fan voting holds, would be Will Smith of the Dodgers with 419,587 votes. Fellow catcher Travis d'Arnaud is listed on the ballot as a DH, and he is in third place at 221,543 votes, just behind starter JD Martinez of the Dodgers (412,373) and backup Bryce Harper of the Phillies (380,345). 

Shortstop Orlando Arcia, in somewhat of an unexpected development, is leading the voting at his position with 406,509 votes, backed up by Francisco Lindor of the Mets (302,051). Former Braves SS Dansby Swanson is in 5th place, with 197,569 votes. 

Two Braves are pacing as backups on the team as early voting continues, with Ozzie Albies (376,726) behind Luis Arraez of the Marlins (509,092) and Austin Riley (368,044) behind Nolan Arenado of the Cardinals (410,122). 

Matt Olson (272,275) is pacing to be the odd man out at first base, with Freddie Freeman of the Dodgers (775,503) as the starter and Pete Alonso of the Mets (377,749) as the backup.
