    Boy, it didn't look like Acuña got enough of that off the bat for it to leave the yard.

    How many solo HRs must Acuña hit before Snitker realizes this kid should be hitting cleanup?

    So, what happened to Freeman’s power? Since, like, June he’s hit about 6 HRs.

    I think another lineup shakeup is in line...but Snitker really thinks that doing all the little things right to get the run in is more reliable than big power in cleanup. Does that matter when this is Acuna's line with RISP anyway?

    .344/.436/.609

    He sometimes got overanxious with runners on last year, but this year he hasn't been.
    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.

    Freeman swinging through a lot of hittable fastballs lately. And likely swinging himself out of the MVP race, unfortunately.

    Without a huge Sep he's done. Probably Carpenters right now.

    Unfortunately, he (or markakis) won't allow the manager to sit him a day. FF just needs a day or 2 off

    Best hitter right now is getting the most PAs. I don’t have an issue with it.

    Nah, Acuña will have another PA, so they’ll at least tie it up.
