Ronald Acuña Jr. may begin a rehab assignment next week after suffering a Grade One hamstring strain. The Atlanta Braves are being cautious with his return, aiming for him to be back in action by late July. Acuña has been on the injured list since mid-June due to this injury, and the Braves plan to continue easing him back into play to prevent further issues. Additionally, Robert Suarez is also targeting a post-All-Star break return, but he will need more time to recuperate from forearm inflammation.
