09/23/21 GDT Braves @ D-Backs “Firsting” In The Desert

So, the Phillies are going to come back from a 7-0 deficit and 6-0 deficit in the span of a week.

This loss today is going to wind up costing us the division.

No...Acuna was not. I get being a fan but be real. Just because Acuna is the most talented doesn't make him a team MVP. This isn't his team yet. Right now he's Horner to Freddie being Murph.

The fWAR numbers don’t lie. It took Freeman 150 games to match the production Acuña put up in 82 games.

Baseball is a game, not science and some of us do not buy into the overstudied crap. Freddie's years of seniority mean that it is his team until he retires or moves on. Just like it was Chipper's after Smoltz moved on.

Man I’m 40 and have never been a big Advanced stat guy but numbers don’t lie and before Acuna got hurt it wasn’t even close.
He’s our best player and one of the top 5 in MLB.
I don’t see how you could argue.
Yes it’s Freddie’s team and we all love him and he’s been his usual great self but facts are facts and before he got injured he was going to finish top 2 in MVP and lead the majors or come close in a lot of different categories.
Even Freddie has gone on record as saying He’s one of the best players he’s ever seen.
Don’t die on this hill.

So it will be acuna's team in about 2 or 3 months?

What we’ve learned here is that in order to be the best player on the team, you also have to be the most veteran player on the team.

Insightful stuff. Intelligence like this and the BiLE Theory is why we frequent this board.

I frequent your mom and give her my BiLE theory.
