Ronald Acuna missed another game but has at least now flown to Philly. He may be available today or he may just want to compare and contrast Pat and Geno’s. Your humble poster’s POV: Geno’s but definitely witout da wizz.

Acuna’s absence meant another game in LF for Ozuna. Wow, he’s bad defensively. The only thing he can grab is his wife’s throat and his best throws are her against the wall. I really with Liberty Media would understand sunk costs (or better yet have a spine about DV) and move on.
Speaking of bad D, the Phils look b-a-d. Atlanta’s first two runs were scored via a catchable ball in LCF that turned into a double, a grounder just outside the limited range of the 2B, a runner going first-to-third because the RF’s arm is a cooked noodle, and finally an attempted 6-4-3 that was turned kinda slowly allowing the ATL batter to beat out the throw. No errors, just C- / D+ skills.
Will Smith got the save. He was Atlanta’s closer in the WS run last year but has been used in the 6/7 innings with Kenley Jansen on the team. A day earlier they used AJ Minter to close. The beat writers are saying the two will split the job until The big guy’s heartbeat returns to normal.

Reading the Manfred interview reminds me that everyone is the star of their own internal movie. Dane Dunning may be the only exception out of 7 billion humans.
Don't know if you saw the Sunday night Kay/Arod thing but they interviewed Acuna and he said he was very worried about his foot despite what the Braves were saying.
See, this is why Acuna needs a strong veteran presence like Freeman around. Someone to tell him to go to a real Philly cheesesteak shop and not the touristy crap.
Of course, Freeman is a fellow millennial suburban white guy, so he'd probably be ok with Steak'ums on a club roll.
I'm about an inch above tourist to the area. I spent a year working across the river in Mt. Laurel, would fly up from ATL Sunday night and fly home again on Thursday. So some extended time in the Philadelphia area, but certainly no native.
What ATL needs is to bring back a rolly polly guy to lead the club in all cheesesteak related issues. Freeman and now Olson are just too healthy. Criminy we've even got vegan Spencer Strider on the team. For all that is good and holy, bring back Pablo Sandoval!
I'm a late boomer suburban white guy, and I'm ok with Steak'umms (I think they use two Ms) on a club roll.
I actually made two steakumm and cheese sandwiches just this week (because that's how many I can get from a pack of steakumms), on hoagie rolls, with a little Frank's Red Hot for flavor, and of course provolone.

(Always with provolone, though.)

That sounds wonderful.
