Acuna laced a double that didn't get more than 5 feet off the ground. 110mph EV

Man he hits the ball consistently hard.

Nice first inning from mccarthey. The curve has nice downward tilt to it so far

What happened to real 5-tool prospects who were elite on defense, on the bases, and swinging the bat? Players like Jason Heywood.

Haha people are already saying that Acuna is going to be just like Jason Heyward, a bust if he doesn't get sent down to the minors.

The silly. Because I'd like for Acuna to be a better hitter than him but Heyward is a great outcome, most minor leaguers don't work out.

Sometimes you gotta throw your curveball less hard.

Big zone for Velasquez early.

Why is Flaherty playing?

He should have kept bunting, 3B played super far off

Look at the tweets in this status. I didn't even realize that Joe Simpson is providing...instructions as I don't listen to the broadcast.

Why is Flaherty playing?

Because he has "hit well off Velasquez".

This team has embraced analytics but still is "in" on traditional stuff.

Nobody knows
