Ronald Acuña is likely to make his debut within the next week. The Braves lead baseball in runs scored through the first three series of the year, and his arrival will provide instant power and speed to the middle of the order.
Saturday, April 14th marks the first day he could join the big league club — that would be in the middle of the Cubs series in Chicago — although the Braves may opt to keep him down in the minors for a few extra days. The Braves begin a lengthy home-stand on April 16 if they prefer to break in their star prospect at SunTrust Park.
