Gorman a bomb, Walker a bomb. Burleson avg hitter at best. And this was imo his career year. No place on defense for him.. Lose em all.

I did not go back and check this. But, I believe on the broadcast yesterday they stated if Burleson finishes with an 800 OPS, he will be the first Cardinal OF in 15 years to do so. That says two things. First, the Cards OF has been an obomination the last 15 years. Second, Burleson is better than an average hitter.

Going back to 2011, Holliday, Beltran, Berkman, Piscotty, Pham, Fowler, and O’Neil have put up an 800 ops as Cardinal outfielders.
I didn’t watch the game so I don’t know if there was any context to that statement.
And without a doubt, the current outfielders are disappointing to say the least.

Thanks. It sounded wrong. I wrote the comment on the way out to run some errands. I thought of Holliday on the way out... If we exclude 2011, that gets it down to 5 OFs, who during seasons with qualifying plate appearances appear to have only accomplished it once and Beltran twice...Not very good...
