And there is is....another leadoff home run from Acuna off the very first pitch....traveled 430 feet. Didn't travel as far as some of the other ones but the kid is the king of leadoff jacks!
In high school I was the king of jacking off but I was never celebrated for it

"what was your best pull out?"
as the pullout king of Ball State (tm) there are too many to call.

Acuna just missed hitting another one in his second at-bat but settles for a standup double...
Acuna (ROY) 85 Games - .295 avg 23 HR 50 RBI .938 OPS 11 SB (46 XBH, 59 Runs)
In a full season that easily translates into 40+ HR, 90+ RBI, 110+ Runs & roughly 20 SB.....as a 20 year old rookie.

I agree that this kid looks like he will be a monster going forward and he has played consistent over his time this year but it's funny how a lot of the call ups don't translate their pace into a full season, Gary Sanchez, Rhys Hoskins, Matt Olson, in the past couple years all those guys scorched for two months but it's hard to do that over a full campaign after Major league teams put a book together on someone.
He really does look like a stud outfielder though, and his sample size this year is bigger than most of those guys I mentioned, just pointing out the sophomore slump hits more people than it misses.

Gary Sanchez a classic example of a rookie coming up on Taco Del Mar but then getting overconfident and switching to Taco Bell. Never go full retard.

Oh yeah, never ever pay attention to paces...they're meaningless and impossible to predict. Too many variables.
They're only true when I post them of my favorite players.

Speaking of Acuna, he went 3-for-4 with a HR, double & 2 runs scored tonight
.
Apparently he also tied a Braves record for most leadoff home runs in any given season...
https://www.mlb.com/news/ronald-acuna-jr-hits-7th-leadoff-home-run/c-293068324
He's also currently tied for 2nd in leadoff home runs hit by a rookie with Nomar Garciaparra & Hanley Ramirez. Chris Young holds that record.

The strange part is guys have a sophomore slump due to the other teams "making adjustments" but these adjustments are always throwing more breaking pitches.... which really begs the question why teams throw a ton of fastballs to rookies. 
I mean the reason pitchers are still in milb is they cant locate their secondary pitches so you have tons of guys in the minors just throwing great fastballs. . . hence rookie hitters who were just called up from the minors are ready to hit fastballs. This has been happening for years.

I don't think a bunch of breaking stuff will "solve" acuna. He crushes breaking stuff already.The strange part is guys have a sophomore slump due to the other teams "making adjustments" but these adjustments are always throwing more breaking pitches.... which really begs the question why teams throw a ton of fastballs to rookies.

agreed, I forgot to add that was about the league in general and Acuna is going to keep blasting no matter what they throw.

A good example of that coming to mind is Dustin Ackley.
Any site issues? This change I did today was big.
