The Atlanta Braves announced they’ve activated superstar outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. from the
injured list ahead of Thursday’s game against the Chicago Cubs.
Acuna suffered a torn ACL in a July 10
game against the Miami Marlins. He missed the remainder of the 2021
season, which concluded with the Braves winning their first World
Series title since 1995, and the club’s first 19 games of the 2022
campaign.
