Default Acuna - Odds are against him:

Has any player come back to even close to his prior production with TWO surgically-repaired knees?

I can't think of any.

Lots of pitchers have multiple arm surgeries and I struggle to recall any would came back to the same 'heights'.

This includes Spencer Strider, who had TJ in College before his latest injury.

All this is very depressing to us Braves' fans.


We all should be thankful we got to see the best even for a short time...my mind thinks of Jacob deGrom...alas.
