The Atlanta Braves suffered a couple of losses on Tuesday night in Kansas City. Despite a great offensive showing, Atlanta's bullpen was unable to keep the game close and put the Braves at risk for yet another series loss.
However, the biggest storyline is that Ronald Acuna Jr. is now on the 10-day IL with inflammation in his right Achilles. The latest update is that the discomfort is being felt mostly in his upper Achilles/lower calf area, but they will await an MRI to confirm the length of his absence.
With this bad news, the Braves once again have to navigate the season without one of their best players.
