Don't you have to have once been good before to get that?

Good point. I hadn’t looked at his previous years. Thought he had a better first and second year than he actually did haha.

Gunnar is probably our MVP but Ryan O’Hearn is a close second. He’s having an amazing season and to be honest, I’ll always be appreciative of him. Just like Steve Pearce 

It's not close.

I'd put Bradish, Adley, Felix and Mullins ahead of him.

They have the tiebreak though, so it would really be 3 games back.   

Home field advantage in the World Series...

Right.  Damn those were close games.

Are the whiners happy yet?

Means can get his first win since two years ago Wednesday if he can hang on through this inning.

You have to be something first.

His only season prior to this one that was above replacement was his rookie season in which he played like 44 games.

This is more like a most improved player situation.

Good call. I should look at the stats before I ask questions like that haha. Memory didn’t serve me well.

Means' last inning.  Hyde probably trying to get him the 5 innings for the win.

It's cool, he's been a great story.

Hays just wanted to see what the guys in the bullpen were doing.

Cedric Mullins? You just lost every ounce of credibility you had with me.

[Emory Eagle]

A lot of hard contact given up for a 1-run effort, but I'll take it.

Philly beating Atlanta mid 8.  Orioles win + Atlanta loss = 2 gb for best record.

Atlanta really slumping.

Woe is me.

O'Hearn is a great story.

He doesn't play enough.  Even missing time to injury Mullins has impacted more games.  He also impacts games more with his glove and on the basepaths.

Atlanta really relaxing. 

Fixed that for you.  They don't have to hustle now, kinda get to slide easily into the postseason at this point. 

Also, didn't Acuña get injured recently?
