Summary
The Cardinals are exploding this season—not just with one or two stars, but with JJ Wetherholt and Jordan Walker dominating like MVPs. Wetherholt’s defensive wizardry and clutch hitting, paired with Walker’s run-producing brilliance, have vaulted the team into the top five in MLB for position player value—despite spending far less than rivals like the Dodgers and Yankees. Their defense is a net positive, with middle infield and center field locking things down, while their offense is clicking on all cylinders, ranking third in MLB in expected weighted on-base average. The big question? Can the pitching keep pace? If not, this team is poised to be a force all season. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
