3 years agoAtlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (groin) isn't in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the San Diego Padres. He is dealing with groin soreness and remains day-to-day. The 24-year-old superstar will miss his third consecutive game. Marcell Ozuna will start in left field while William Contreras serves as the team's designated hitter. Contreras went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 11-6 loss to the Padres. The 24-year-old makes an intriguing DFS option at catcher and can be used as a streamer in Saturday's slate. Contreras is slashing .237/.311/.405 with four homers, 12 RBI, and six runs over six games in 2022.--Brad Camara - RotoBaller
