The idea of Ronald Acuña Jr. being traded still doesn't make a ton of sense for the Atlanta Braves. Okay, it actually makes close to zero.
Acuña isn't just fantastic, the face of the current Braves, and under team control for the next three-and-a-half years. He's also underpaid for a star of his caliber, and will make just $17 million in each of those seasons.
But with the Braves floundering this season, any and all trade ideas seem to be on the table from a hypothetical perspective. Even if the Braves won't trade anyone under contract for 2026 and beyond, there are those who will say they could, and maybe even should.
