    I say it ever damn start but what is Charlie’s problem with clean innings? He never has them after a big one from the offense. Ever

    come on, man. We get it. You are not a Charlie Morton fan. You ****ing talking about it every night. Just lay off it. He’s playing terribly but he’s somehow the least of our concerns most nights

    He is. He was the best player in the NL before getting hurt in '21. And he's the best player in the NL this year now that he's fully healthy.

    The homerun stroke clearly seems to be coming back for Acuna which is awesome to see. Feels like coming in bunches now

    BTW I think Acuna's launch angle is fixed. His homer wasn't even a strike and he golfed it to the 2nd deck.
