The Atlanta Braves are concerned about star outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr., who is experiencing a thumb issue. During a game against the Miami Marlins on May 21, 2026, Acuña exited after showing signs of pain in his left thumb, but X-rays returned negative, labeling him day-to-day. This follows a hamstring strain that previously sidelined him for two weeks. Despite a slow start this season, Acuña’s return is crucial as the Braves lead the NL East with a 35-16 record.
