Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. has been placed on the injured list due to a Grade 1 hamstring strain, his second such injury in two months. He sustained the injury while attempting an infield single against the White Sox. There is no set timeline for his return, but sources suggest it could mirror the two-week absence from his previous strain. The Braves are currently leading the NL East by nine games and may prioritize his long-term health over immediate play as they aim for postseason success.
