I know the Braves are doing good and we're feeling good, but Acuña has been a buzzkill

I feel like he's basically been Rafael frigging Belliard in these playoffs. He'll do something scrappy every once in a while, but other than that he looks completely overmatched at the plate and pitiful.

He played pretty well last night I thought although he did only have the one hit.

I don't pull for the Braves against very many teams, but I sure would love to see the Ponzis lose in this round. That house of cards is about to fall anyway, may as well get it started early.

I'm more concerned about Baldwin than Acuna.

Didn’t Drake make good contact last night?

Baldwin swings so hard at everything that it looks like his eyes are closed. Or maybe he swings so hard at everything that his eyes are closed.

Acuna has been bad and the double play was awful but he did score one of our 3 runs and has been taking walks a lot. But yes, he is not playing well

Agreed … he appears to be just going through the motions

I think it's the opposite.

He is pressing incredibly hard because he's a very emotional guy that feels the pressure and that usually doesn't end well.

He's actually been one the Braves better OBP guys over these 5 playoff games, but he is stranding a shite ton of dudes on base in key moments.
