    LOL What else can Acuna do? Unluckiest stretch I’ve ever seen from a player.

    Acuna hit that at nearly 106...of course right at someone and Odubel had to f***ing show off.

    Please blow this team out tomorrow and bean him for that. This bothers me more than celebrating.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    dude peppers everything. It’s always at someone. But a pop up goes for a home run. Baseball is so cruel.

    I'm starting to see why high EV doesn't result in higher BAPIP... Major league defensive players still make the play if it's hard

    Team had a big time hangover today from that 9th yesterday. As flat tonight as I've seen this team all year. Guys need to get back to the hotel, go to sleep, and hit the reset button.

    Or, you know. law of averages. Team just scored 10 runs yesterday and had won like 8 straight on the road.

    It's not surprising if they were flat. Big emotional win then immediately board a plane to play the next day. You're not gonna be at your best every game. Throw in a hot pitcher with a great curve and this team wasn't doing much tonight

    No doubt. Acuna will have to adjust to the majors and go from there. He's so insanely talented and it's so early that I'm not worried, but I know he's got to be a little frustrated. That being said, he's CRUSHING a lot of good pitches and just missing mistakes. He'll get there.

    odubel jumps to make catches when it's completely unnecessary. it's so stupid. and fans in the stadium think it's just simply amazing. i'm like...he could've just...caught it...but he jumps and makes a pretty easy play look far more difficult than it is. it's really dumb.

    we also scored 10 runs the day before on zero (well, one really) XBH. so the hard hit balls found defenders today.
