What could have been with McGreevy and Wetherholt

In retrospect, the season could have been much better for the Cardinals had McGreevy been in the starting rotation and Wetherholt been the starting 3B from the start of the season. Before you get snarky, think about the possible impact these two might actually have made.

Dang, even better than Ohtani! I honestly didn’t even realize Wetherholt pitched.

Wetherholt in the starting rotation? interesting thought

So you see JJ as an Ohtani type that takes the ball every fifth day and plays the field the rest of the week?

I've been pushing all year both JJ and Koperniak to be in the rotation. It would have really solidified the top of the rotation.

do you pay attention at all to baseball?
He would've never been in the lineup out of Spring Training....1 Hit, 1 (bleep) hit. And before you say anything, no one is listening anyways.
It Happens.
What? [shirt]?
Yeah

"In restrospect" stooge. Also, you recklessly assume "no one is listening anyways'. Wrong, the obsessed crowd, led by you, follow every single word I post.

I've never heard of half of these guys, and the ones I do know are way past their prime.
Most of these guys never had a prime.
That's all I have to say about that.

The only safe assumption is that JJ needed to be on the trajectory he was on to get where he is now.
Starting off the season in MLB may have gone ok or it may have destroyed him. It's a risk not worth taking.

True. But it sure would have been intriguing.

Too bad they don't throw standard player development practices out the window in the name of your intrigue. Maybe we could have seen JJ switched to pitcher!!
