Ronald Acuna Jr. Records Hit Off Bench Thursday
3 years agoAtlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (back) came off the bench and went 1-for-1 with a walk and a pinch-hit single in a 4-3 win over the Mets on Thursday night. Acuna had been scratched from the starting lineup Thursday with mid-back tightness, although it was reported he would be available off the bench. While a single and a walk don't necessarily get fantasy managers excited, the fact that Acuna was able to play at all in the game is a positive sign, and he could be back in the starting lineup by Friday. Managers should keep an eye out for the Braves' lineup to confirm, but it seems like Acuna will be able to play tomorrow.
