Ronald Acuna Jr. Will Be Fine
2 years agoAtlanta Braves manager Brian Snitker said that outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (knee) was having trouble bending his knee on Thursday after fouling a ball off of it, so the team felt that it was best to pull him and have him begin getting treatment. Snitker said Acuna is going to be fine. The 25-year-old superstar was pulled for precautionary reasons on Thursday, so it's unlikely that he'll need to go on the injured list or miss too much time. There's a chance he could be back for the start of the series against the Baltimore Orioles on Friday. Before leaving, Acuna went 1-for-3 with an RBI, run scored, a walk and a strikeout, and he's now hitting a cool .355 for Atlanta. Get Acuna back into your starting lineups if he's back in Atlanta's lineup on Friday.
