The Atlanta Braves lost superstar outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. to an ACL injury back in July. And rather than declaring the season lost, the front office went all in and revamped the entire outfield en route to a World Series championship.
And sure, it was an incredible feat to take home a title without Acuña, but Braves fans will be especially happy to see the progress that the 24-year-old is making. It’ll almost make them forget about Freddie Freeman’s impending exit from Atlanta. Acuña is set to return at some point in May with the Braves estimating he won’t be able to play in the field until late May.
His bat, though, seems to be coming along just fine.
