should be ,,,there is no way burleson should be starting over Gorman . If you don’t think managers can play their favorites your crazy.Not starting Gorman is managers decision . Burleson did not win the DH position by his stats.Gormans potential can be great but he has to have at bats. Nobody on this forum can tell me burleson has more potential than Gorman. They the cardinals said this is Gorman’s make or break year.Then give him at bats.

Burleson is being traded to KC for 10 Red Sox Top 10 prospects.

To be honest Gorman didn’t even win a position on the roster.

Oli is managing to keep his 7 figure annual salary job for a few more years.
I don't think favorites or teacher's pets or who has a hot sister will play into it.

Oli's instincts are to win as many games in the short term to save his job, with an incoming POBO who didn't hire him. That's understandable. Mo to an extent is the the same boat as he wants a successful farewell season. I think it will lead to salvaging a .500 season instead of developing higher ceiling players for future seasons.

LMFAO
I know we’re giving this childish goof the attention he craves but it is in good fun!
Although....you have to admit that a definite PATTERN has reared its ugly head this deep into the season.
Must be KK’s turn today?
I lost track....is it Web7 or Bully4you to start the stupidity tomorrow? LOL

He’s one in a group.
Throw in Bully4you and Web7.
Probably missing one or two others? LOL

He has been starved for attention since he showed up here a decade ago.
Nothing has changed.
He had--and has--myriad screen names, in part because he eventually melts down, goes nuts and gets banned.
Joel, Shady, KK, and many others-he is Sybil.

Yea, Chaim and BDW2 would have to publicly come out and say he will be here in 2026, and I don't see that happening.
