From those who would know better than me...... Is this team a real contender for a playoff spot or just a flash in the pan in a long season....
From the Athletic by Katie Woo
As the St. Louis Cardinals surge through May, they’re doing so by playing some of their best baseball in recent memory.
The Cardinals (24-20) are a season-best four games over .500. They have won 14 of their last 19 games and currently sit one game out of first place in the division. Players across the board are taking major steps forward.
Brendan Donovan’s .313 batting average is the sixth-highest in the National League. Victor Scott II’s six Outs Above Average (OAA) is tied for the third-best in baseball, and his 13 stolen bases are the third-most in the league. Masyn Winn continues to show why the Cardinals believe he’ll be their long-term shortstop, and Kyle Leahy continues to be one of the most underrated set-up men in the game
