Acuña Near Return, Braves Proceeding Cautiously | Atlanta Braves News
Description
Ronald Acuña Jr. is inching closer to returning to the Braves, with no firm date yet—but the plan is clear: he’ll start in right field when he’s back. The team’s being cautious after his hamstring struggles this year, wisely avoiding rush decisions. With the Braves scoring well and avoiding pressure, they’re letting Acuña build up gradually. His recent rehab stint with Triple-A Gwinnett included at-bats and even outfield time—great signs as he works on timing and leg strength. While right field is the goal, he may DH occasionally, especially with Drake Baldwin behind the plate. The Braves are prioritizing his long-term health and readiness for that big impact they know he can deliver.
