## Resource

The Cardinals are crushing it offensively despite some bad luck—low BABIP but more runs scored. Ivan Herrera’s getting more walks but less power, yet still delivering. JJ Wetherholt’s contact rate is soaring, Alec Burleson’s hitting harder with more outside-zone swings, Jordan Walker’s launch angle and exit velocity are back to rookie-level dominance, Nolan Gorman’s defense is up but offense needs work, Victor Scott II’s groundballs are steady, and Nathan Church’s chasing pitches is a red flag for his future as a starter.
