“I thought Bader was the starting center fielder for the St. Louis Cardinals”

Molina starting is surprising
Williams gets a start before Fowler returns
Bader looked poor at the plate last night, good choice to sit himBW, I’d go ahead and make the Knizner for Williams roster change now, just so we have two healthy catchers.
When Gallegos and Fowler are set to return I’d be looking at Fernandez and Ravelo to the taxi squad. Ravelo for the same reason as Williams, limited playing time, with Fowler returning making it four outfielders active without counting Edman.
Sure, they have a room full of sabreheads and they use a fanasty ball stat like runs produced for contract evaluations. I ain’t buyin it. Total bases? that’s slg% in its crude form that ignores AB’s / ratios. Believe what you want, but don’t try selling it here.
It does surprise me that anyone who points out Bader and O’Neills K’s constantly as you do, would target a player in Soler who led the AL in K’s last season.
For 2019-20 Miller has posted a 129 ops+, Soler a 133 ops+. I like that you compare Soler to a DH, because our outfield D would take a negative hit with him out there, vs who we have.
I’d project Soler at 10.5mil in his arb4 FA-to-be year of 2021.
I think we need to add Knizner back for say Williams, just to keep from forcing Yadi to play when he’s really not available
