The Atlanta Braves provided updates on Ronald Acuña Jr.âs recovery from knee surgery, confirming he will not return to Los Angeles for evaluation. He is set to begin a rehab assignment this month. Despite previous conflicting reports, the Braves remain cautious for his return, potentially eyeing a late May comeback. This development comes amid the team's struggles with offensive consistency, and while there's hope for a quick return, the Braves are focusing on a measured approach in Acuña's rehabilitation process.
On Ronald Acuña Jr.: Braves discussed him seeing Dr. Neal ElAttrache in LA again. But the Braves talked to ElAttrache today and the doctor said he doesn't need to see Acuña, and that a rehab assignment start date is up to the Braves.
The Braves now say Acuña won't need to return to LA. He will begin rehab games at some point this month. Late May still seems like a realistic target for his return to Atlanta's lineup.
