This is not gonna be good for chasing the mets down

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

That does not look good

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

It looks bad, torn ACL bad, but so did Giannis' and he missed a week.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Well, it was indeed the worst case scenario. Awful.


Might even cost him time in 2022.

 

[Terry Yake]

that's just awful

hopefully he can make a complete recovery and keep playing at the level he has been

 

[DJN21]

Makes me sick to my stomach. He might not come back a 40-40 threat after this which is a shame because he was such a special talent. Look what this injury did to Chipper Jones. The speed never came back. This ruined my week.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Right before the all-star game too. Just a few innings away from being able to take a break. Absolutely brutal

The one plus side is ACL injuries are so common, most guys come back basically fine. I'm sure Acuna will still be a monster, especially him being so young. Makes recovery easier

 

[Canes]

I hate it so much for Acuna but at least it's clear for AA to sell sell, but knowing him we'll sign Nick Markakis and trade for a bunch of bum relievers, miss the postseason and let Freddie walk this offseason for nothing.

Nah even AA can recognize when the towel needs to be thrown in.

The Braves were already in tough to try and catch the Mets with Acuna. With him, one of the few good consistent bats you had gone you just accept this season is a wash and start shipping guys out.

With how good Morton has been in the leadup to the break you could probably get a good haul for him.

I mean we are only 4 back of the Mets in the most mediocre division in baseball, any sort of injury to de Grom, short or long term and knowing the Mets ability to choke, that's nothing. But certainly a tall task for the Braves without Acuna for sure.

Man this sucks

 

[Memento]

That sucks. I may be a Cardinals fan, but I love how Acuna plays. I hope he comes back stronger and better; he was so much fun to watch this year.
