It's, obviously, a "head-scratcher" to some here that see how the Cardinals seem to really like Burleson's hitting ability. Something they don't/can't see. By the way, he hit a couple missiles right at somebody yesterday. He is a fine MLB hitter, indeed. The Cardinals know they were fortunate to draft him when they did. And to get some really good production/value out of him. Stay tuned for some nice, steady progress.

he can't progress much. He's mid twenties college grad. His Ceiling has problem been reached....and his AB's are likely less than last year as a back up at 1B, and battling Baker/Gorman and others for the DH spot

A fine hitter "indeed". A whole four percent above league average last year for a guy with no other tools. A real keeper is he. You are going to "need" a whole lot of socks to agree with yourself "this" year. Just don't make them racist ones, please.

I disagree. Stay tuned on Burleson's steady progress the next couple seasons.

I disagree. Stay tuned on your continual spamming of the forum with repetitive, inane threads about him just to get attention.

Burlerson is the type of player that plays 10 years in the majors for 5 or 6 different teams. A nice career while making $20 to $30 million over his career

By the way, where are all those "socks"? If they truly exist, shouldn't they be more supportive?

They were all banned, along with Hardmaple.

And then you returned with yet another account name.

Isn't that right, Shady/Sanusual6/OldCoach77?

Could be. Good hitters seem to hang on for a while.

You are simply delusional if you think that. My advice. Stick to baseball discussion.

I vote for Bully4you to get it rolling.

Instead of nonsense, why not talk some baseball? Do you feel Burleson has plateaued as a MLB hitter like craviduce seems to think?

I don’t think AB is a model of consistency either.

Also, regarding Contreras, are you basing this opinion on one game? Come on…
