Braves Slump or Surge? | Atlanta Braves News

Braves’ June slump doesn’t spell doom—history shows teams rebounding after similar rough patches. With Ronald Acuña Jr. set to return, the offense could ignite, as his presence has always lifted the team. Jarred Kelenic is working through a rough patch after his oblique injury, but his OPS in June was the worst for any Braves player since the move to Atlanta. On the mound, Robert Suarez’s return plus potential contributions from Bryce Elder and AJ Smith-Shawver could revive one of baseball’s best bullpens. The Braves are still very much alive in the playoff race.
