Rookie Noah Cameron will be recalled from Triple-A to start today’s game in Lugo’s place, and Cameron might well be in line for an extended look in the majors if one or both of Lugo or Ragans ultimately require a 15-day IL stint to fully heal up. -mlbtr

he's a LHP....so Burleson may sit? That's a bummer. Maybe Oli lets him start anyway?
Actually, that may be one of the reasons the Cardinals see so many LHP.
True, the whole league is terrified of Burleson and his career 95 OPS+
Yep! Teams don't care about Contreras, Herrera, Noot, Winn, Hurdy Gurdy. Their entire focus is a guy who isn't even an average career hitter!
I get it. But Burleson has more respect as a MLB hitter vs RHP by the professionals than you might think. JMO
How in the Wide, Wide World of Sports would you know this? Can you quantify it? Can you prove it?

Just because you type it, doesn't make it a fact.
"Just because you type it, doesn't make it a fact". That seems to be the case with a lot posters on Card Talk.

I coached LL 13-14. Seth was one year ahead. He went to Centenary in Shreveport where my wife is a Trustee. I have watched him up close many times. The man can be a beast. Cardinals are lucky he not pitching today. Of course Skenes went to LSU and Cards tattoo him. Go Redbirds!

Ummmmm No

And for the record the Cardinals have faced:

32 RHSP
13 LHSP

Good point. More specifically.
2025 - Cards 10th in MLB vs LHP in OPS (.702). They are 7th vs RHP (.763).
They've seen 71% RHP (using ABs). That % was 71% as well in 2024; 75% in 2023 and 77% in 2022 (when they led MLB in OPS vs. LHP).
