1) Yes, Chas is under appreciated. As we’ve discussed here, he shown to be a good player over about a full season’s worth of PAs. He should be the everyday CF.
2) The comparison is dumb, considering Acuna was coming off ACL surgery last year and it was clearly the worst season of his career (and likely to be an aberration when all is said and done), not his normal season. He is a “generational talent.”
A better set of comparisons would be to simply point out that in 2021-2022, Chas was in the same wRC+ neighborhood as Castellanos, Haniger, Joc Pederson, Benintendi, Austin Meadows, Hunter Renfroe…guys who aren’t competing for playing time on their teams, who’ve been all-stars, and who aren’t better than Chas.
