It seems Wetherholt is playing shortstop, predominately, at Memphis

Post by Shady »

I just don't understand that. With Winn so young and seemingly engrained at SS for the foreseeable future. Why not get Wetherholt more experience at 2B or 3B? One of the two are where he'll likely play for the Cardinals if Winn is still with the Cardinals.

Good observation. Wetherholt is a hot topic for a struggling Cardinals team.

Anticipating knee surgery for Winn? Or overall durability and longevity concerns so they’re planning on dumping him while he has value?

If he can play the more demanding position the move to a lesser position will be a snap.
If you had a quality OF in the minors and he was playing CF would you move him to a corner to show he can play it?????

OMG, he's not going to be ready, he's not going to be ready. What do we do?

if you're going to ignore what we've told you on the other 9 threads about JJ and playing SS and 2B....then this is what it'll be from here on out.

I'm sure glad the Cardinals didn't follow your brilliance regarding Burleson. That was a major Guru FUp. Hey Master, your claims don't make it true. Just like mine don't. They are just opinions. Your's are no better than mine, overall. That's a fact, Jack.

If durability and longevity issues are a reason to dump Winn then they need to dump JJ also he fell in the draft because of hamstring issues and has already spent time on the IL this season with hamstring issues

Just when I thought you were showing some decency for a change. You resort to being an AHole again. Some things never change. You missed the boat on Burleson, too. There will be better days, chumper.

Fine.....and BTW... I didn’t call you a name.
So careful asking for “decency” when you don’t reciprocate!
I did make a legit point though.

Please stop shouting. You, like many here, downplayed Burleson for quite a while. I'm just reminding you not to get too full of yourself. Same with the GURU.

Whoa there Chief!
When did I ever degrade Burleson?????
I’ve always recognized his “potential” at the plate but questioned where he would fit defensively AND could he hit LH pitching enough to NOT be a platoon player????
Get your facts straight before talking out of your butt!
And .......you still didn’t answer the question!!!!

Cool your jets. It's "downplayed", not "degraded". Calm down. Again, when someone tries to be a jerk toward me, I owe them nothing. Take a hint.
