“It’s not a secret I want to be a Brave for life,” Acuña said through an interpreter. “I hope I can stay here forever and hopefully we can make that happen soon.”

Acuña’s value skyrocketed last year as he produced one of the most impressive seasons in MLB history. To point out the reigning National League MVP constructed just the fifth 40-homer, 40-steal season ever recorded might seem impressive. But that’s also underselling what he accomplished while hitting 41 homers and tallying a modern franchise record with 73 steals.
