Acuna Officially On IL; Kelenic Recalled

The player was coming up through the minor leagues with his original organization but did not play for the Braves during the H.W. Bush Administration. His Braves' tenure was in the mid-90s.
 
A calf strain like this is often a precursor to issues with the Achilles (or at least it can be). A calf strain with hyperflexion can easily lead to a rupture of the Achilles (see, eg, Tyrese Haliburton). Running or sprinting on the bases or in the OF can easily result in this.

Please for the sake of all that is rational sit Acuna for a month and even after he returns, make him the DH after we (hopefully) unload Ozuna.

Yeah the Achilles is usually a precursor to the lower calf strain. That's why I said earlier to just trade Murphy asap bc Snit is gonna swap him and Baldwin out there the rest of the year and will put Ronald in RF.

Yep. This season is over so sitting him a month should be the minimum. We need him healthy for next year.
 
It'll be the end of August or close when he SHOULD come back but with only a month to go after that is it really worth it to risk it?
