I'm just so glad to see him raking again. His start to the year was scary, going 15 games without a single extra base hit.
Even if the team decides to rebuild and Braun isn't traded this year which would be very unlikely, just seeing him hit like his former self again is so huge given the years and dollars still owed to him. Having 100 plus million in mostly dead money to Braun would have been a major problem for the team going forward.
After a horrific start to the season, Braun has a .971 OPS this month and a 1.000 plus OPS since late April.
