Did you even look at the whole graphic? He's been getting worse and worse. He'll probably bounce back but he's definitely fallen off recently.
Soto has been the 6th best hitter in baseball to date and he’s 19. Of course, he is more like to do worse than that going forward than better. But to act like he is hitting the wall when he still had a .422 OBP over the time period in question seems odd.

Him and Acuna are going in opposite directions. Soto seems to have been getting figured out more and more over the last 30 games. His last 8 games or so have been baaaaaaad

I'm obviously a Braves fan.
This entire discussion is ridiculous. Both players are young. Both players are outstanding. They each bring different skillsets to the table. Soto is probably the better hitter, but Acuna is probably the better overall guy.
Soto's ability to get on base even during his "struggles" is most impressive. That means that he'll still be productive during slumps, assuming he continues this throughout his career.
Right now, I'd give the ROY to Soto, but if he continues to "slide" and Acuna stays hot for an extended period of time, that could obviously change. In the end, I think voters will base their opinion strictly on HRs, RBIs, and AVG even though that's a flawed way to do it. If that's the case, then this should be a close race until the end of the year.
