    Acuna is most valuable at the plate not risking hand injuries.
    I agree, but he's in his early 20s... you know he wants to break records

    Whatsisbucket, dude for the Orioles who had the single 50 HR campaign in the 90s when he never before or after did anything remotely close to it, used to go around claiming to be the only 50/50 guy in major league history, even though his weren't in the same season. I wouldn't mind seeing him lose that meaningless distinction.

    So did everyone who wasn't him. His career high outside of that one season was under 30. IIRC.

    Ah, yeah, his 50 HR season would have come later. So Anderson already lost that "only" tag.

    Hargrove was putting Brady in the leadoff spot too.
