Acuña is now the best player in baseball since Ohtani cannot pitch. I wouldn’t trade him for anyone. The Braves are lucky to have him. They hyped him up like nobody’s business before he even stepped on a major league field and he has lived up to it and more.

Acuña is the only one history with a 40/50 season and might actually finish with a 40/70 season. The best display of offensive power/speed in major league history.

 

[VolPack22]

Also, Acuña is only 1 of 2 players on that 40/40 list that is not linked to PED’s, Soriano being the other.

Kevin Pillar just had a 14-pitch AB that ended in a K. Gotta be one of the longest AB’s of the season.

So cool.

Gaudin was tired of saying " another foul ball".

So cool.

I love baseball stats. Nothing like them.

Lots of memorable childhood moments in today’s history post!
Thanks for posting these @VolPack22
I don’t always comment but this is one of the things I look at everyday!

You’re welcome! I may miss a day from time to time but I love looking back at them also.

Braves get a 3 game set with the Cubs after this series. We can either assist them in getting a Wildcard spot or ruin their season and keep them out altogether. I vote for the latter because they have shown to be a challenging matchup this season. The Cubs have the 3rd-best run differential in the NL and 8th-best overall. Really would not want to see them in the playoffs.

Time for a break from the PC.

So you’re telling me that Ronald Acuna jr is Ty Cobb reincarnated.

Sounds legit to me.

 

[VolPack22]

Don’t look now but the Padres are miraculously 4.5 games out of the final NL Wildcard spot after a 7 game winning streak.

He’s better.

And none of them will live to see themselves enshrined into the HOF.
What a shame, everyone of them were great players before they started juicing.

That’s insane. That squad should be battling the Dodgers for the West title.

 

[VolPack22]

Ozuna says look at me. Gets his 36th HR and 90th RBI. Man oh man if Riley and Ozuna can somehow get to 40 HR and 100 RBI, that would be something spectacular for there to be 4 players in one lineup with those numbers.

Bunch of selfish losers on that team.

Braves-Nationals game tomorrow is postponed due to weather. Double header incoming on Sunday.
