If he's a part time player. Some of your numbers are feasible. However, I'd be really surprised if Burleson ends up with a BA under .250 if he sees, primarily, RHP.
He could very likely be the best hitter on the current roster against RHP.
We've gone over this before: In 2024 alone, Contreras, Donovan, and Herrera were all better hitters than Burleson vs. RHP. And career-wise, Burleson is not even close to being the best hitter on the current roster vs. RHP. Why do you keep repeating claims that you know aren't true? I don't know, Shady, sure seems like you might be operating in bad faith . . .
I have pointed out the adoration Cardinals experts have alluded to about Burleson's hitting ability. And who they would prefer batting in the clutch against outstanding RHP pitching. The doubters have called the experts shills for the organizations. But think about it, why don't they say those same distinct accolades for other players? Burleson is their preference, it seems.
Link the source for what you say.
And just because one “feels” doesn’t mean factual data supports it.

no one, not one professional expert, pundit, journalist ever said that "Burleson is preferred in the clutch against outstanding RHP pitching". You're the only one, you've been saying it for 2 years, and his stats NEVER have showed he's clutch.
Stop Trolling with repetitive garbage. Jim Edmonds hyped Burleson last Spring Training, he hyped everyone in Spring Training, but he never said that Burleson was preferred.

Bases loaded, as clutch of a situation as one could have, he mustered a .267 OPS, .100 BA, with 5, only 5 RBI (you only believe in that stat).

Both Walker and Gorman have higher ceilings --- Burleson may have a higher floor. This is the year to find out.
Excellent point.
Pretty clear Burleson is a productive MLB bat - and even if he never becomes anything more there will be opportunities for him in MLB for several years.
Gorman's ceiling, at the moment, is the easiest to see: no question he can become a perennial 30+ HR hitter, though he needs to find more consistent contact.
Walker is a fascinating case: could be another David Green, or could be another Chili Davis type player.

Obviously, it's imperative that Walker and Gorman demonstrate the lofty goals the Cardinals had/have for them. However, it will be almost as important for Burleson to return to the All Star caliber production he had the first half of '24. He was really good. How soon some forget that.
He had 2 great months. 45 of his 78 RBI came in June and July. In the other 4 months he had RBI totals of 10, 8, 9, and 6. Gorman sucked last year and then got sent down and he actually had more 10+ RBI months (4) than Burleson (3).
That's exactly my point. "it will be almost as important for Burleson to return to the All Star caliber production he had the first half of '24". It will be fascinating to see how all three produce in '25. Walker, Gorman and Burleson.
That's really what Buttercup and Sanusual6 and Robert Shelton always say?
This thread was heading out of the front page. Gracias for the bump.
Why do you even care?
Unless, of course, your primary purpose on this forum is to get attention . . .
Because I enjoy baseball discussion on topics that interest me. Especially, courteous responses. Any other questions?
Pure Vida always says that.

Praise does not win games. Offensive & defensive production does. So far during his 3 year-career, your Beloved Burly has not been particularly productive as evidenced by a career 0.4 WAR and 95 OPS+.

We've gone over this before: In 2024 alone, Contreras, Donovan, and Herrera were all better hitters than Burleson vs. RHP. And career-wise, Burleson is not even close to being the best hitter on the current roster vs. RHP. Why do you keep repeating claims that you know aren't true? I don't know, Shady, sure seems like you might be operating in bad faith . . .
I have pointed out the adoration Cardinals experts have alluded to about Burleson's hitting ability.
And who they would prefer batting in the clutch against outstanding RHP pitching. The doubters have called the experts shills for the organizations. But think about it, why don't they say those same distinct accolades for other players?
Burleson is their preference, it seems.
Source(s)? Link(s)? Anything? Bueller?
Anyway, who cares what Brad Thompson thinks? The numbers are the numbers.
Do the Cardinals have any actual "experts" in the organization? Who are they? And what exactly are these "accolades" they have supppsedly bestowed upon Mr Burleson?
So many questions...so few answers.
I would advise that you pay much closer attention to the Cardinals telecasts and post game shows. You seem to be missing some quite obvious praise for Burleson's hitting ability.
Praise does not win games. Offensive & defensive production does. So far during his 3 year-career, your Beloved Burly has not been particularly productive as evidenced by a career 0.4 WAR and 95 OPS+.
The Cardinals organization seems to REALLY like Burleson. Regardless of what pseudo, wannabe experts on CT think. That's just the way it is. Sorry.
Can you please provide any documentation to support your position? Thanks in advance!

For what it's worth, my prediction for TGAB...
12 HR
48 RBI
.248, .297, .386, .683
If he's a part time player. Some of your numbers are feasible. However, I'd be really surprised if Burleson ends up with a BA under .250 if he sees, primarily, RHP.
He could very likely be the best hitter on the current roster against RHP.

The Cardinals organization and expert analysts seem to REALLY like Burleson. Regardless of what pseudo, wannabe experts on CT think. That's just the way it is. Sorry.
I'll ask again...who are these experts and what have they said? Be as specific as the data I have supplied which proves Burly's mediocrity.
