Al, through the years.

Al is the man!

Meh, it's not worth debating.
I was just not comparing Fowler to Votto other than cite that spring training numbers carry no significance.
We can move on.

I can buy with that.

I mostly agree. It is worrisome with Fowler because he hit .180 last season and is hitting .194 this spring. Starting to show consistency. Not in a good way.

Are you describing yourself since the word you attempted to spell is correctly spelled moron?

No...Google Moran memes and you will get the reference and it's relation to Cards fans

So who, Cardinal OFer, is hitting well, batting average wise, in ST? Which of those has a long, successful MLB career?

They are all hitting better than Fowler.
They all hit better than Fowler last season. Fact is that the Cards played much better without Fowler last season.
But it is also a fact that Fowler is being paid allot and is going to get playing time. I am all for that. But Fowler has to start hitting better than .180. .194 is not good enough either.
He certainly hasn't earned his pay in St. Louis yet.

Fowler's career is on the downslope for sure. I suspect the FO is aware of that. Finding an upgrade is a process. There are some pretty good corner OF's out there, and they will doubtless get one.

No they won't. They have a minor league littered with OF prospects as well as JMart and Tyler Oniel already on the team.

Your lies are unacceptable

ST stats: Only one is hitting better than DFlower dumbshit

Master Bader hitting 171
DFLower hitting 194
JMart 257
Oz 156
Oneill 188


You were spouting bullshit.

Look up DFLowers 2017 season with the Cards and tell me how horrible it was? He had a horrible year in 2018, and yes, there will be concerns but to post lies is absolute bullshit

 

[navamind]

Fowler was coming off one of the best offensive seasons of his career just a year ago.

Are you blowing Fowler? You seem to be in love.
Fowler has been absolute shit in his time with the Cardinals. That is fact. Ok, his 2017 season was OK. It still wasn't as good as the money he got. Last season nullified his OK 2017 season.
Those other players you mentioned do not have a .180 season to warrant a trend as Fowler does.

Fowler is also the 2nd highest paid Cardinal this season. He needs to play like it.

Since when was a .363 OBP and .488 SLG% from a CF considered "absolute shit"? He was absolute shit in 2018, but you're letting one abysmal season cloud your judgment.

LOL..no, correcting your lies. Maybe "fake news" will sink in better with your feeble mind.

I am not a DFlower wonk and never wanted him, but to deny his 2017 wasn't very good just shows your hatred for him for some reason. Lets compare to the other starters from last year

DF 2017: 122 OPS+, 264/363/488/851

Master Bader 2018: 106 OPS+, 264/334/422/756

Oz 2018: 106 OPS+, 380/325/433/758

Back your bullshit up or admit you make shit up...

Facts are hard for Myles...he has my sympathy

I think you hate the fact, yes fact, that our second highest player hit .180 last year and is hitting .194 this year.
Keep sucking his junk though. You are good at it.

I never refuted any of that...I refuted your bullshit that were complete lies. Keep ignoring and lacking basic reading skills. It's all good...your a Moran. I'm sure it's you holding that sign and not looking shit up for yourself. LOL...you disliked a freaking question post...LMAO...you are "special."
