    If he's hurt I don't think they would be stupid enough to have him pitch. I just think he's reaching his innings limit. Probably 100-110 innings for a 175lb North East pitcher.

    Ozzie with a blast down 3rd base line for a hustle double.. maybe should have been fielded... Acuna followed with an oppo blast off the wall to score Ozzie..

    Yeah plenty of time to push him. Will be interesting to see if they place him in AA next year. He's been every bit as good as sorkoa/allard. For that matter they might do the same with wentz

    For all the fanfare acuna gets (well deserved) Albies has killed it at AAA once he had some time to recover.

    And they were born in 1997. The year the late great Eric Gregg umped one of the finest games of all time. Game 5 of the NLCS.

    Yep. His ability to hit RHP improved so much this year too.

    Yup...and that power increase this year has all types of tantalizing possibilities. 2018 may be the most fun year since heywards rookie season.

    No.

    I think Albies is a 5ish WAR player in his prime.

    Acuņa is a 7/8ish WAR guy with double digit upside.

    If Acuna doesn't produce a few 10 win seasons by age 25 he will be a huge disappointment.
