Players to Watch: St. Louis Cardinals vs. Minnesota Twins
St. Louis Cardinals
Jordan Walker — RF. The right fielder anchors the St. Louis attack with a .302 average, 17 home runs and 52 RBIs. His .561 slugging percentage gives the Cardinals a corner bat that punishes mistakes in the middle of the order.
Alec Burleson — 1B. Working from first base, Burleson pairs a .290 average with 48 RBIs to give St. Louis a steady run-producer behind Walker. His .486 slugging percentage keeps the line moving when the power threats are pitched around.
Ivan Herrera — DH. Herrera takes on-base value into the designated-hitter spot with a .393 on-base percentage, the highest mark among the Cardinals regulars. That patience translates into a .262 average and 28 RBIs across a full-time role.
Minnesota Twins
Byron Buxton — CF. The center fielder supplies Minnesota’s most dangerous power with 20 home runs and a .559 slugging percentage. A .256 average rounds out a profile built on extra-base damage at the top of the order.
Josh Bell — DH. Bell leads the Twins with 38 RBIs from the designated-hitter spot, giving Minnesota a middle-of-the-order presence even with a .229 average. His seven home runs add occasional thump to the run-producing role.
Brooks Lee — SS. The shortstop chips in 10 home runs and 38 RBIs to match Bell for the team RBI lead. A .410 slugging percentage shows the kind of gap power Minnesota wants from the middle of its infield.
