Go read Fangraphs article. The chance of that happening is minuscule
They need to go 30-11 over their final 41 games to get there. Considering the way they've been playing, I wouldn't be super surprised if it happens although they don't have the easiest schedule to finish the season

Which one of those is not like the others and why do you think its like that?
Supposedly this is his first year which he's felt 100% from his back/neck surgery a few years back.

Come on. He is going to be 35. Anything higher than the QO is illogical really esp if you believe in pache. If he finishes strong, he may get the post super 2 call next year.

The other day, I got roped into watching my 3 month old niece while my wife got her hair done. So there I am, sitting in the waiting area of a hair salon with my niece, and who walks in but Ronald Acuña!
I was nervous as frick, and just kept looking at him as he read a Venezuelan magazine and waited, but didn't know what to say. Pretty soon though my niece started crying, and I'm trying to quiet her down because I didn't want her to bother My Dad, but she just wouldn't stop. Pretty soon he gets up and walks over. He started running his hands through her hair and asking ¿Que Pasa? I replied that she was probably hungry or something. So, Acuña put down his magazine, picked up my niece and lifted his shirt. He breast fed her right there in the middle of a hair salon. Chill guy, really nice about it.

Another awesome night last night. Running out of words for Ronnie. I honestly didnt think he had a shot at RoY bc of time missed and all that. This dude is close to the team lead in homers. Was telling my buddy last night about how I'm sure they want to eventually move him to 4 or 5 to maximize the power with Freddie and Kakes, but he's killing it at leadoff. Plus I feel like regardless of how hot he's been, he's gonna see good pitches batting before Freddie and Kakes. Props to Snit for sticking with him there even with how hot Ender has been. It's worked out both ways.

What exactly is so hard to fathom about his neck/back being healthy and it being one of the main reasons for his success?

behind only Ralph Garr’s 47 in 1974.
“Happy to be healthy, so that’s the biggest thing,” Markakis said. “We all know if you’re not healthy you can’t contribute (as far as) baseball activities. I’m happy I’m healthy and happy the team is playing as well as they are right now.”
Markakis, who graduated from Woodstock High School in 2001 -- when Ronald Acuna was 3 years old and Ozzie Albies was 4 – plays virtually every inning of every game and never goes anything less than full-bore when running out a ground ball or routine fly ball. There are no concessions made to age or to injuries and surgeries he’s had over the years including the major vertebrae-fusion neck surgery in December 2014, shortly after signing a four-year, $44 million free-agent deal with the Braves.

I took it to mean "come on" in terms of it being silly to sign him to a multi year deal...but I could be wrong.
I'm sure his health is 100% behind his great season so far, but I'm not sure I'd sign him to a multi year deal after the season is over. A QO might be a good way to go with him. Maybe he finds a team to offer a multi year deal and we get a pick out of it. Maybe he decides to take our QO and we get his services for one more year and we'll certainly have the money to cover that cost.

Probably right
Wouldn't sign even to a LT deal as well...3 years would be depending on the amount.2 years would be max.

So if it took him 3 years to get completely healthy and be good, what was his excuse for like 6 years of mediocrity in Baltimore after his 2008 season?
