Atlanta's Season Comes Down to Ronald Acuña

Ronald Acuña Jr. could be back in the Braves lineup as soon as next week, and his return couldn't come at a more important time. With Atlanta battling for playoff position and facing major questions throughout the lineup, the Braves need more than just Acuña's presence. They need MVP-level Ronald Acuña. In this video, we break down why Acuña's return may be the biggest factor in determining whether Atlanta wins the NL East or fights for a Wild Card spot. While Acuña's numbers this season have been solid, the Braves need the version of Ronnie that can carry a team for weeks at a time, just like he did during his MVP season and after returning from injury last year. We also discuss: Why the Braves offense looks different with Acuña in the lineup The pressure on Ronald to be Atlanta's best player Austin Riley's struggles and the lack of offensive consistency What Acuña's return means before the trade deadline The Braves' path to 90+ wins and a postseason berth Why Atlanta has little margin for error over the final two months With just 67 games remaining, the Braves need Ronald Acuña Jr. to be more than good. They need him to be one of the best players in baseball. Do you think Acuña can go on another MVP-caliber run and carry the Braves into October?
