As the Braves Turn

Acuna out for the year. So is Strider. Murphy has missed the first 2 months. Phillies have a big lead. Bullpen is struggling. How many division championships have the Braves won in a row? That may be coming to an end, but maybe the Braves can be firing on all cylinders for the playoffs. The season is only one third of the way over. Lot of baseball still to be played.

Last time the Braves won the World Series, they did it with Acuna. All those naysayers who criticized the Braves for giving Acuna a below market long term deal several years before they had to were wrong – the Braves are paying Ronald big bucks despite him missing most of two full seasons of the contract. Acuna may never put up all time great numbers. We shall see. Ted Williams missed 5 seasons due to two wars, but still had a great career.

Slept past 730. Maybe to 8 am. Got my laptop working. Did just a little work. C fixed oatmeal and an eggy boy for breakfast. 

Drove to Georgetown and walked around the historic downtown and waterfront. 

Hit a few stores in Pawleys Island on the way back. Didn’t get out to the beach until 230 pm. Stayed less than 3 hours.

Dinner at The Rustic Table. Very good. Ceil loved her gumbo and mahi mahi salad. My smash burger, fries, and slaw were very good. There was a guy at a nearby table talking to the guy at the next table about how good the burgers were. They are.
