Manager: Don Mattingly (second season)
Who's new? C A.J. Ellis, RHP Edinson Volquez, RHP Dan Straily, RHP Brad Ziegler, RHP Junichi Tazawa, LHP Jeff Locke
Who's gone? C Jeff Mathis, INF Chris Johnson, RHP Andrew Cashner, LHP Mike Dunn, RHP Fernando Rodney
Projected lineup: SS Dee Gordon (.268, 1 HR, 14 RBI, 30 SB in 79 games), 3B Martin Prado (.305, 8, 75), CF Christian Yelich (.298, 21, 98), RF Giancarlo Stanton (.240, 27, 74 in 119 games), LF Marcell Ozuna (.266, 23, 76), 1B Justin Bour (.264, 15, 51), C J.T. Realmuto (.303, 11, 48, 12 SB), SS Adeiny Hechavarria (.236, 3, 38)
Rotation: LH Wei-Yin Chen (5-5, 4.96), RH Edinson Volquez (10-11, 5.37 with Royals), LH Adam Conley (8-6, 3.85), RH Dan Straily (14-8, 3.76 with Reds), RH Tom Koehler (9-13, 4.33)
Key relievers: RH A.J. Ramos (1-4, 2.81 40/43 SV), RH Brad Ziegler (2-3, 2.28, 18/20 SV with Diamondbacks), RH Junichi Tazawa (3-2, 4.17 with Red Sox), RH Kyle Barraclough (6-3, 2.85), RH David Phelps (7-6, 2.28), RH Dustin McGowan (1-3, 2.82)
Hot spots: Middle infield. Gordon and Hechavarria were a throwback double-play combo in 2016: strong defense up the middle, light with the bats. That would be OK in some lineups, but only three MLB teams scored fewer runs per game last season than Miami. Derek Dietrich was a more than capable fill-in during Gordon's PED suspension, posting a .374 on-base percentage. How long can Mattingly keep Dietrich on the bench if Gordon and Hechavarria struggle to hit?
Outlook: There are many recent examples of teams taking the 'stars and scrubs' approach to roster construction. It never ends well. The Marlins lost their brightest star when ace right-hander Jose Fernandez died far too young; replacing his production and presence was impossible. The remaining stars come with major question marks. Can Stanton stay healthy? If not, can Yelich and Bour be the pillars of the lineup? Who's the star of this pitching staff? No team managed by Mattingly has lost more than 82 games in a season. That will change in 2017. | | ST LOUIS: 2016: 86-76, second place
Manager: Mike Matheny (sixth season)
Who's new? OF Dexter Fowler, C Eric Fryer, LH Brett Cecil
Who's gone? 1B Brandon Moss, OF Matt Holliday, OF Jeremy Hazelbaker, RHP Jaime Garcia, RHP Seth Maness, RHP Jerome Williams
Projected lineup: CF Dexter Fowler (.276, 13 HR, 48 RBI, 13 SB with Cubs), SS Aledmys Diaz (.300, 17, 65), 1B Matt Carpenter (.271, 21, 68), RF Stephen Piscotty (.273, 22, 85), C Yadier Molina (.307, 8, 58), 3B Jedd Gyorko (.243, 30, 59), 2B Kolten Wong (.240, 5, 23), LF Randal Grichuk (.240, 24, 68)
Rotation: RH Carlos Martinez (16-9, 3.04 ERA), RH Adam Wainwright (13-9, 4.62), RH Mike Leake (9-12, 4.69), RH Michael Wacha (7-7, 5.09), RH Lance Lynn (did not pitch - Tommy John surgery)
Key relievers: RH Seung-hwan Oh (6-3, 1.92 ERA 19/23 SV), LH Kevin Siegrist (6-3, 2.77), RH Trevor Rosenthal (2-4, 4.46, 14/18 SV), LH Brett Cecil (1-7, 3.93 with Blue Jays), RH Jonathan Broxton (4-2, 4.30), RH Matt Bowman (2-5, 3.46), RH Miguel Socolovich (1-0, 2.00)
Hot spots: Rotation. The back end looked like a big leap of faith when spring training began. Wainwright and Wacha are coming off their worst seasons. Another 2013 World Series mainstay, Lynn, didn't pitch last season as he recovered from Tommy John surgery. Then, on the first day of camp, 22-year-old right-hander Alex Reyes learned he needed Tommy John himself. That leaves a lot of question marks after ace Martinez ' more than any Cardinals staff has faced in years.
Outlook: This 40-man roster hints at a team in transition. Venerable 34-year-old catcher Molina is still St. Louis' biggest star. Reyes' injury hurts the youth movement, but the Cardinals are still stacked with talented 20-something sluggers ' Piscotty, Diaz, Gyorko and Grichuk ' who could emerge as household names. Adding Fowler's speed and patience should complement an already deep lineup. The pitching staff is a different matter. Barring a big resurgence from Wainwright, Lynn and Wacha (or a big trade) it's hard to see the Cardinals contending for more than a wild card spot in the Cubs' shadow. |
| | Marlins look to slow Pham, Cardinals
ST. LOUIS -- Wondering why the St. Louis Cardinals are 7-2 in their past nine games with series wins over the playoff-contending Arizona Diamondbacks and Washington Nationals? Look no farther than the outfielder who didn't make the Opening Night roster and whose star had plummeted considerably for most of the last year. Now Tommy Pham, who has probably been St. Louis' best player for the last couple of weeks, has opened up so many eyes with his play offensively and defensively that some think he could make Dexter Fowler move from center to left or right when Fowler returns from the 10-day disabled list. Pham figures to play a central role in the Cardinals' Tuesday home game with the Miami Marlins, who are searching for a way to get him out after failing to do so in five plate appearances during St. Louis' 14-6 win Monday night in Busch Stadium. Pham drilled an RBI triple in the first, walked his next two times up, then lined singles to right-center in his last two at-bats. "He's just in a good place," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said of Pham. "He's driving balls, taking walks and getting on base for guys to knock him in." After Monday night, Pham is hitting .295 with 10 homers and 29 RBIs. Only Jedd Gyorko has a higher average on the team at .301, and no teammate owns more steals than Pham's nine. In the field, Pham seems to attack every ball hit at him. One defensive metric had him saving six runs in June alone. By comparison, Fowler, who by most metrics is a solid defender in center, cost his team eight runs. Pham's defense has assisted the team's pitching, allowing guys such as Lance Lynn get deeper into games and escape some jams. Lynn (6-5, 3.90 ERA) will get the start in the holiday matinee after earning a 10-3 victory in Arizona on Thursday. Lynn gave up three runs in six innings against the Diamondbacks' powerful lineup. He has enjoyed success against the Marlins in his career, going 4-0 with a 3.82 ERA in seven starts, although he lasted just four innings and allowed four runs in a no-decision on May 10 in St. Louis' 7-5 win at Miami. Desperately needing a good start, the Marlins (36-45) turn to right-hander Jose Urena (6-3, 3.42 ERA). Although Urena lost 6-3 Thursday night to the New York Mets, he has been the team's second-best starter behind Dan Straily. Urena was charged with six hits and five runs, three of them earned, against the Mets with no walks and four strikeouts. He has faced the Cardinals (40-42) just twice in his career, going 0-1 with a 10.61 ERA. Miami dipped into its bullpen for 16 outs Monday night after Jeff Locke tied a career and franchise high by ceding 11 runs in 2 2/3 innings. "Absolutely nothing went his way," Miami manager Don Mattingly said. "It's hard to say much positive about that outing." |
