Players to Watch: St. Louis Cardinals vs. LA Angels
St. Louis Cardinals
Jordan Walker — RF. Walker has emerged as the engine of the Cardinals’ offense in right field, hitting .292 with 22 home runs and 76 RBIs. His .525 slugging percentage paired with a .355 on-base mark gives St. Louis a genuine power threat in the middle of the order.
Alec Burleson — 1B. At first base, Burleson brings a steadier line to the lineup, batting .277 with 15 home runs and 69 RBIs. He’s drawn enough walks to post a .339 on-base percentage, and his .463 slugging mark shows he still does real damage when he connects.
JJ Wetherholt — 2B. Second baseman Wetherholt rounds out the group at .260 with 14 home runs and 38 RBIs in his first extended big league look. His .356 on-base percentage edges Walker’s .355 mark, a sign the rookie is working counts as effectively as anyone in the St. Louis lineup tonight.
LA Angels
Nolan Schanuel — 1B. Schanuel sets the table at first base for the Angels, hitting .282 with a .353 on-base percentage that makes him one of the tougher outs in the lineup. His .399 slugging percentage shows he can also drive the ball into the gaps when pitchers challenge him.
Zach Neto — SS. Shortstop Neto supplies pop up the middle, hitting .235 with 19 home runs and 46 RBIs this season. The power production keeps him in the middle of the Angels’ lineup even as the batting average has lagged.
Jo Adell — RF. Adell rounds out the Angels’ group in right field, hitting .240 with 14 home runs and 55 RBIs. That RBI total tops Neto’s 46, even without matching Neto’s power pace.
