Despite feeling like he's letting his team down, Acuña Jr. finds solace in the support from teammates and MLB players, expressing gratitude and determination to make a comeback. The upcoming surgery in Los Angeles will be performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, the same surgeon from his previous ACL injury three years ago. Acuña Jr., the 2023 NL MVP, sees this setback as an opportunity for personal growth and hopes to return stronger. With Acuña Jr. and pitcher Spencer Strider out for the season, he trusts his team to succeed in the 2024 season, believing they have the capability to win a World Series without him.
