Any chance Jordan makes it up to the Cardinals this season?

Post by Shady »

If he maintains something close to his current stats.12 HR, 62 RBIs,.308 BA .377 OBP, .872 OPS. Would it take an injury or two to current 1B, 3B players for Jordan to get his opportunity this season? It appears the Cardinals have another fine 22 year-old prospect, like Wetherholt, coming along.

I’m a Blaze Jordan fan. Please don’t Alec Burleson him.

We can only hope Jordan can be the type of MLB hitter Burleson has turned out to be. Think about how true this is before you post a stupid response.

Burleson not a guy who is a run producer. Just a guy or JAG. Jordan can and possibly will exceed the Burly production.

Who led the Cardinals in RBIs last season? "Jordan can and possibly will exceed the Burly production". That is wishful thinking and would be very nice.

We’re hoping he’s a player who is on pace for less than 70 RBI and like 55 runs?

Who led the Cardinals in RBIs last season?
With a [shirt]ty total of 78 RBI. And his bat is supposed to be his calling card.

This team needs more than a Burleson. Far, far more.

Be real nice if Jordan can produce 21 HRs and 78 RBIs for the Cardinals in a season.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he made the team coming out of ST next season.

That would be nice. Would he need to be a regular to do that?

He should play everyday in AAA without question

What he needs is to clearly outhit Gorman. And maybe Arenado if he's still around. Then there's Wetherholt in the mix. I'm anxious to see how Jordan compares to Saggese.

Play everyday in AAA next year? If he finishes strong this year I agree with Cranny. It will be interesting to see how he does.

Overall he’s been pretty strong in AAA.

First 16 games: .348/.377/.591 8 2B 2 HR 12 RBI 14 R 3 BB-8 K
10 game slump: .162 with a .468 OPS over 40 PA. 3 BB-6 K
Last 17 games: .344/.382/.531 3 2B 3 HR 11 RBI 12 R 4 BB-5 K

He just doesn’t strikeout. He’s had 2 games. TWO. all year where he’s had more than 1 K.

That’s impressive for a 22 year old in AA/AAA. Both were in AAA though. One was when he was hot, one was when he was not. Both games were 2 strikeouts, too. So no 3+ K days.

2 games with 2+ Ks
34 games with 1 K
52 games with 0 K

"He just doesn’t strikeout. He’s had 2 games. TWO. all year where he’s had more than 1 K". That is impressive, indeed.
