Should Braves consider making Ronald Acuna a full-time DH?

Ronald Acuña Jr. has the talent to be the Braves’ most impactful offensive player, but since his MVP season in 2023, staying healthy has become a recurring concern, while his consistency at the plate has also fluctuated. With Acuña under a team-friendly contract for the next several seasons, the Braves have a decision to make: Should they prioritize keeping his bat in the lineup by reducing the physical demands of playing the field? A transition to a more full-time DH role, with occasional appearances in the outfield, could help protect Acuña physically while allowing him to focus on the most valuable part of his game—his ability to impact the offense. The question is whether the Braves are willing to sacrifice some of his defensive value and elite arm in exchange for keeping his bat healthy and productive over the long term.
