In today's video I discuss the awful season offensively for the St. Louis Cardinals. But it isn't just about 2024.
Unless something changes quickly and dramatically to upgrade the hitting-talent roster for 2025, there's no reason to to have optimism for 2025.
STL's older hitters will be older, we can't count on young hitters Jordan Walker and Nolan Gorman to rebound in a substantial way in 2025, skepticism remains about Lars Nootbaar, Alec Burleson has faded badly at the plate since the third week of July. And unless the Cardinals go outside to acquire or sign a true impact hitter, they'll have (again) an outfield group that will be among the worst offensively in MLB.
The other problem: elite hitting talent among their prospects. There are exceptions of course. (J.J. Wetherholt is a legitimately exciting hitting prospect.)
The offensive outlook for 2025 is cloudy and bleak.
Near the end of the video, I fill viewers in on the vintage baseball cap I wore today, and why it's so special. Thanks.
