Ronald Acuna Jr. To See Three Plate Appearances In First Rehab Game
Ronald Acuna Jr. (knee) will likely get three plate appearances in his first minor-league rehab game on Tuesday night in the rookie-level Florida Complex League. It will allow him to most likely play four to five innings in right field, with the Braves treating it like it's his first spring training game. Although there is no official timetable for the former MVP to make his 2025 season debut, the Braves have been targeting a return for Acuna at some point in May. At the same time, they aren't going to rush the 27-year-old superstar back, as they want him to be ready to play every day in right field when he's eventually activated from the injured list. The most likely scenario is that we see Acuna make his return in late May, barring a setback on his rehab assignment. Acuna may not run as much in 2025 coming off a torn ACL, but he still has the skills to be a difference-maker in fantasy.
