Ronald Acuña Jr. remains one of the biggest question marks heading into 2027. Can he become the consistent offensive force the Braves need to build their lineup around, and what would his trade value be with two years remaining on his contract? The conversation also examines Austin Riley’s struggles, whether he can return to being a dynamic hitter, and how Atlanta can develop a more balanced offense that doesn’t rely so heavily on home runs to win games in October.
