Braves Face Season Without Acuña Jr. After Devastating ACL Injury

The Atlanta Braves face a challenging period after losing star player Ronald Acuña Jr. to a season-ending ACL tear. Manager Brian Snitker and players express their sympathy for Acuña, who previously overcame a similar injury. Despite this setback, the Braves welcome back Austin Riley and Sean Murphy to the lineup and adjust their strategy, including moving Ozzie Albies to the leadoff spot and giving Jarred Kelenic more playing time. The team also retains catcher Chadwick Tromp to provide flexibility in late-game situations.
