Ronald. You’ve been my favorite brave ever since your rookie season. The way you just burst onto the scene and dominated. Believe it or not, I injured my ACL as well. It took me six months to play soccer again, and I fought every day for those six months. And knowing my favorite player went through that very same thing just encourages me so much. I bought your rookie card during the summer because I knew you’d be back and better than ever. Chop on Ronald. You’re a legend in brave country already!

[@EliYT5588]

Ronald is my favorite too

[@edwardcopeland5069]

Why can't your favorite player be the face of baseball, why isn't he worthy.? Because as I speak that honor is being bestowed on Shohei Ohtani. Your thoughts.

[@isaachernandez8995]

Great words!

[@edwardcopeland5069]

@@isaachernandez8995 I think Shohei is a great player and worthy of his praise, but as a hitter he isn't nothing I haven't seen before, as a pitcher he isn't nothing I haven't seen before...Now I can understand his marketability in that he would bring his franchise notoriety more readily because of his country and the power that it exudes, and once again I understand he's a great player, but how does that equates to him being out of worldly as opposed to the many other great players as Acuna, betts, Freeman etc.. in the league , especially if he isn't able to be consistent as a pitcher which is the case now. Your thoughts are appreciated.

[@kashshhds8824]

Did u tear your acl or a partial tear cause no shot you can play on a torn acl surgery after 6 months

[@SoundFX09]

One Day at a Time becomes One Week, Then One Month, Then a Year. By the time we Blink, We've gone farther than we realized. It's good to have you back Acuna. We ALL Missed you here in Braves' Country.

[@WhatHappenedtoBaseball]

I knew I missed Ronnie a ton, but I didn’t realize just how much until he ran back out on the field

[@joshuawilliams1026]

[@jhonathancenteno8169]

A real warrior and fighter, dad, one of the most versatile baseball players there is and a true athlete, but it really is part of the process and the day to day life when training since one as a person must do things very well and effectively. in order to obtain great results, blessings

[@ryanhallwrites]

As beautiful and as exciting as last season was, we really did miss him. We missed his swagger and his obvious skill. And one gets the feeling like he's going to be a real menace. He's already starting to get hot. Welcome back, El Abusador! This is a great piece.

are the braves going to do a world series run video like this?, the Mlb one was crap.

[@dayanavillalobosdimare9404]

Good proposal by Braves that is an organization that is doing great things in communications. I would have liked to see more people in the film. For example, his family, friends and teammates talking about that, not only Ronald who is someone who does not speak too much sometimes. But congrats for this!

[@gregbrown1708]

Don’t forget seeing his reaction to the Braves World Series run
