If we use Shady's 4 game weather vane and apply it the above declaration, we can get to the bottom of this, and ascertain the validity of this possibly absurd


to be fair to Burley, let's look at the last 7 games....

Burley ~ .179 BA, .641 OPS
Gorman ~ .240 BA, .865 OPS ....incredible, this is the guy that Shaddy constantly wants to replace with Saggese, but Shady has now given up on Saggese...again.
Contreras ~ .200, .640 OPS
Arenado ~ .259 BA, .791 OPS
Nootbaar ~ .280, 1.100 OPS

------------

As you can see, Shady, is lying again....or he's not capable of properly reading box scores the next day?

"right now" , Burley isn't the "most feared hitter"....not by Shady's very own Weather Vane Metric.

Should we expect...no, should be demand, Shady be consistent and CONDEM Burley and shun him as he so often does after 2 or 3 games with likes of Saggese?

How is that Matt Koperniak love work

Maybe give him a few more at-bats before judging one individual on a team that combined for 0 runs and 5 hits total in 2 days.

You’re asking an awful lot of Shady.

Shady saw Burleson's rise to being a fine MLB hitting coming. Did you ? Probably not. There were a lot of CT doubters regarding Burleson.

The guru would prefer Koperniak over Burleson, no doubt. Guru is one smart cookie about players in the organization.

You are likely another poster (and there were many), that was wrong on Burleson. Now you try to make light of it. I know your silly game.

Wasn’t aware you were proven right about Burlseon yet. Still the dreaded second half to go.

Now, would drinking Burly sweat help Sagesse? Curious to hear honkey tonk’s thoughts.

Not sure about the second half. But, right now, Burleson is the most feared hitter in the Cardinals' lineup. A lot of managers don't seem too crazy about having him hit against RHP.

What does that have to do with Saggese? It took 2 replies for you to get off topic.

I think Burleson has figured things out and is becoming the complete player you always said he would be.

Doesn't matter whether you are correct or incorrect on any topic or player. As long as you keep making multiple accounts and talk to yourself, everyone will continue to laugh at you for your lack of intelligence and self awareness.

Therefore, you will continue to get zero credit from anyone on this forum except your own puppet accounts

If you stopped that you might be surprised that people may take your input seriously. I personally might. Sometimes you have solid topics, but you blow all your legitimacy by then responding to yourself with a separate account. I don't need to name them. Everybody already knows

I’ll bet you a cheeseburger Burleson has big slump before year end. He is not hall of fame yet.

You think it will be a slump like Contreras had earlier in the season. I don't envision Burleson striking out as much as Contreras did.

There's one big problem with your bogus speculation. It's totally baseless manure. Oh the marvelous ability to spew anonymous bullchit on the internet like you thrive on.
