Is this PR or is this his desire?
Ronald Acuña confirmed this week what he has said numerous times. “I want to be here for my whole career”, Acuña said in his welcome back press conference. I would love for the universe to make that happen.
Do you think Ronald Acuña Jr will be a Brave his entire career? Or at least until the last couple of years like John Smoltz and Tom Glavine when they had they’re “I’m 40ish and I’m still sexy” epilog to their careers? I’m Captain Neutrality here because I don’t know and wouldn’t blame Ronnie either way. Maybe there’s more to his statement. Like “I want to be here for my whole career, but the Dodgers are giving me 400 million dollars so what am I supposed to do”. Or “I want to be here for my whole career, but I’m not giving you a discounted deal”.
