Braves: Ronald Acuna Jr. shows off his progress from knee injury

I’ve said it several times: it wouldn’t shock me if Ronald Acuna was starting in the outfield for the Braves on Opening Day, especially if the season gets delayed because of the lockout. The Braves will be extra cautious with him, but seemingly every week, Acuna is making substantial progress towards being 100%, just over six months from surgery. Most recently, the 24-year-old superstar posted a video to his Instagram doing some speed and agility drills.

It’s pretty incredible how far Acuna’s come in such a short amount of time, but it’s also the least surprising thing ever. There’s nothing this man can’t do, and I can’t wait to see him back on the diamond performing acts that shouldn’t be physically possible.
