Overview
- Manager Walt Weiss said Acuña is progressing in running and agility work but will not be activated during the current homestand.
- Acuña has a Grade 1 strain of his left hamstring, an injury type that can worsen if rushed, so the club is prioritizing a full recovery.
- Atlanta filled the outfield gap by selecting José Azócar from Triple-A and has rotated Mike Yastrzemski, Mauricio Dubón, and Michael Harris II.
- The Braves placed catcher Sean Murphy on the injured list with a fractured finger and added veteran Sandy León for coverage behind the plate.
- The team also updated other rehabs, noting Spencer Schwellenbach could begin throwing soon, Hurston Waldrep has started bullpens, Eli White nears return from a concussion IL stint, and Joe Jiménez remains without a pitching timetable.
