Ronald Acuña Jr. announces decision on Braves future as contract discourse begins

The Atlanta Braves have one of the best players in baseball on their team in Ronald Acuña Jr. However, his contract is becoming a topic of discussion.

The Braves signed Acuña to an eight-year, $100 million deal in 2019 on the heels of a Rookie of the Year campaign. He is a four-time All-Star and was just named a starter for this year's All-Star Game in Atlanta. He has also won an MVP Award. Acuña's contract looks like a major bargain for the Braves right now, but the time is quickly approaching for him to sign a new deal.
