Ronald Acuña Jr. News
Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. stole his 70th base of the season as part of Wednesday night's 6-5 extra-innings win over the visiting Chicago Cubs. The favorite to win the National League Most Valuable Player Award continued his historic season in which he has also slugged 41 home runs while also leading the big leagues with a hefty 146 runs scored on the campaign. Acuna swiped second base twice on the evening and also went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a pair of runs scored. Following yet another impressive outing, Acuna is now hitting .336 with a 1.010 OPS across 155 games on the season while aiming for his first career NL MVP.
Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. is getting a rest Sunday for the second game of a doubleheader. Acuna Jr. has played in 153 games so far this season while leading the league in plate appearances, runs, hits, stolen bases, on-base percentage, OPS, OPS+, and total bases. It's possible the superstar gets another day off before the season ends to rest for Atlanta's playoff games but that's not a given. If you have daily lineups, check to make sure he's playing the rest of the way.
Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (calf) has returned to right field and will hit leadoff on Monday against the visiting Philadelphia Phillies and right-hander Zack Wheeler. Acuna, the front-runner for National League MVP, missed the last two games as a precaution due to calf tightness. The 25-year-old superstar will be back in action to begin the week, though, so he needs to be returned to all starting fantasy lineups immediately. More off days could be coming to ensure he's fully healthy and rested for the start of the postseason after the Braves already clinched the National League East division. Acuna is hitting an absurd .337 with league-highs in hits (201), runs scored (135), stolen bases (66), on-base percentage (.418) and total bases (350) in 147 games.

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. looks poised for another strong season atop the National League East club's lineup. The 24-year-old appeared in 119 games for Atlanta last year, hitting .266 with a .351 on-base percentage, 15 home runs, and 29 stolen bases in 533 plate appearances. Of those 533 plate appearances, 528 of them came as Atlanta's leadoff hitter. Acuna Jr. should continue to thrive in that role, especially after a 2022 season in which he finished in the 92nd percentile or better league-wide in hard-hit rate, xSLG, and xwOBA. Given how productive he was on the basepaths this past season, it wouldn't be a total shock if the former Rookie of the Year approached his 2019 metrics with a full season's worth of plate appearances in 2023. During the 2019 season, Acuna hit 41 home runs and stole 37 bases. He has as good of a shot as anyone of finishing as fantasy's top player not named Shohei Ohtani in 2023.
