Atlanta Braves superstar and league MVP Ronald Acuña Jr. has been once again sidelined by injury. This time, it will cost him — and the Braves — the remainder of the season.
Acuña hit himself in Sunday’s game while running bases. While the injury didn’t initially look as bad, after further tests, he was diagnosed with a complete tear of the ACL in his left knee.
Acuña posted “Sorry” on his X account, which was flooded with well-wishes.
Acuña has torn an ACL in the past three calendar years. The latest tear of his anterior cruciate ligament occurred during the first inning of the Braves’ 8-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates.
“I hate it for the young men that it affects more than us,” Braves manager Brian Snitker told MLB.com. “These guys love to play the game. When something like this happens, I hate it.”

The Atlanta Hawks made NBA history on Sunday, May 12, 2024, by winning the league’s draft lottery for the first time in the team’s history.
The Hawks had just a 3% chance of winning the 2024 NBA Draft Lottery, but now that they’ve ended up with the No. 1 overall pick, questions emerge.
Who Should the Hawks Draft With the No. 1 Pick?
Basketball experts are looking for Atlanta to draft Alex Sarr, of the Perth (Australia) Wildcats. Sarr is seen as the creme of the draft because of his strong defensive skills and his shot-blocking ability.
Sarr is also known to play on both ends of the floor. He has a big body that is good for being downlow in the post, but still agile enough to shot around the block.
Here are some highlights of Sarr playing awesome basketball.
What Will Trae Young Do?
The Hawks superstar guard Trae Young has been mentioned as potential trade bait, but now the Hawks have some decisions to make.
According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski’s report during the lottery, there is a strong likelihood that the Hawks will involve Young in trade discussions this offseason.
Wojnarowski mentioned, “They were discussing Dejounte Murray in trade talks. I believe that the potential for trade discussions involving Trae Young this spring and summer is quite real as well.”
Young is under contract for three more years, with the final year being a player option. He is slated to earn $43 million in the 2024-25 season, prompting the Hawks to consider moving on from his hefty salary and focusing on building for the future.
Young signaled that he is open to change recently as well. He left his longtime sports agency Klutch, to sign with Creative Artists Agency (CAA).

The Atlanta Falcons are in the midst of a fast-moving and thorough search for a new head coach, but they may also need a quarterback.
Enter former signal caller Cam Newton, who resides in Atlanta and started at nearby West Lake High School before winning a national college championship at Auburn University and starting got the Carolina Panthers and New England Patriots.
Cam Newton: Falcons Quarterback?
Newton, speaking on a podcast with former star NFL receiver Brandon Marshall, said that there is only one place he’d consider coming back to the NFL for: the Falcons.
”Me having a family now — it’s always been about family — and I don’t see myself leaving Atlanta,” he said. “If it’s not Atlanta, I don’t want to do it.”
Marshall then brings up the possibility of a Newton and Bill Bilichick reunion, which could potentially happen because the Falcons reportedly have brought the Patriots and shoo-in future Hall of Fame coach in for two interviews.
Newton is likely a future Hall of Famer as well, having set the the all-time NFL record for rushing attempts (1,118) and rushing touchdowns (75) for a quarterback.
Falcons owner Arthur Blank is reportedly high on Bilichick as it would bring instant coaching credibility — which the Falcons have perennially lacked — along with a proven winner’s pedigree to the team.
On the other side of the coin, Falcons executives want a younger face to lead the franchise.
Final Word
Can Newton work in Atlanta? And what happens to third-year player Desmond Ridder? These and more questions will have to get answered by August 2024, when the NFL preseason starts anew.
