Suddenly we had another superstar and everything looked so much brighter from that point forward. For me it's that he did something like this at every pro level, including MLB. He'd get promoted then be hitting like .400 or some silly numbers like that and it's like wow is this a fluke? Let's call him up and see. No. Wow. Is this a fluke? No. Let's call him up and see. Now here he is at the majors. Same thing. Next season people outside of this fanbase will be talking about him the way we talk about Acuna, Tatis, Vladdy Jr., Ohtani etc (yes I know Ohtani is in his own category)
