Ronald Acuna Jr. Returns Against Reds
2 years agoAtlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (foot) is back in the starting lineup for the series opener on Friday against Cincinnati Reds left-hander Mike Minor. Acuna is serving as the designated hitter and will bat leadoff, and fantasy managers need to get him back into their lineups in all single-year formats. The 24-year-old All-Star will return for the first time since fouling a ball off his foot last Saturday against the Los Angeles Dodgers. It may be a few games before he returns to his usual spot in right field, but the only thing fantasy managers care about is that he's back in the lineup. Acuna is hitting .281/.372/.455 on the season with an .828 OPS, seven home runs, 18 RBI, 28 runs scored and 13 stolen bases in 43 games. He's a must-start.
