Very Bad news :After extending contract Ronald Acuna jr say he will be leaving soon to

After extending contract Ronald Acuna jr say he will be leaving soon 

Ronald Acuna Jr. told reporters Friday that he wanted to finish his career with the Atlanta Braves. But if you know anything about the Braves, you know that is not likely to happen.

“It’s no secret that I aspire to be a Brave for life. “I hope we can make that happen soon,” Acuna told The Athletic’s David O’Brien.

It’s not surprising that Acuna, the reigning National League MVP from last season, is hinting at a contract extension. This would have been the final year of

his initial contract with Atlanta. He is not blind or dumb, as evidenced by the way he outsmarts opposing pitchers. But he also sees the big contracts that his peers

have signed, such as last year’s American League MVP, Shohei Ohtani, who recently signed a 10-year, $700 million contract with the Dodgers.

Let’s not go crazy and say Acuna is Ohtani by any means. Acuna has yet to take the mound. But after the remarkable year that the Braves leadoff

hitter had in 2023, breaking and making records, particularly his 40/70 feat of home runs (41) and stolen bases (73), if he had not signed his 8-year, $100

million extension back in 2019, Acuna would be the hot topic this upcoming season, just as Ohtani was last year in his walk year with the Angels.

If you are a knowledgeable baseball fan, you will know that the Braves are getting Acuna for a great price. Atlanta is notorious for offering team-friendly deals. They currently have seven players,

including Acuna, who will wear Braves uniforms until at least 2028 and are signed for six, seven, eight, or ten years. Austin Riley has the longest and most 

lucrative contract, at ten years and $212 million, with an average salary of $21.2 million per season.

“You know what’s really frightening? He’s at an age where he’s poised to improve,” remarked Braves manager Brian Snitker to Bally Sports South reporters on Friday.

The Braves were cognizant of this potential when they secured him with an extension in 2019, when he was just 21

years old. Now at 26, entering the prime of his career, Acuna is coming off his most impressive statistical season yet—and yet, there’s room for further growth?

Similar to his approach at the plate, Acuna is striving to stay ahead of the curve—ironically, much like Atlanta did with his 2019 contract—allowing ample

time for the Braves to consider an extension if deemed appropriate. Both Acuna and the Braves will be closely monitoring the situation with recently

acquired New York Yankees outfielder Juan Soto, observing the kind of deal he secures or requests as he approaches free agency after the upcoming season.
