Talking Cards Young Hitters - Segment 5 10-13-22

Published: Oct. 13, 2022, 10:42 p.m.

Bernie longs for the Cardinals to develop a hitter like Astros designated hitter Yordan Alvarez after seeing him continue to mash with a big home run against the Seattle Mariners. Bernie talks about how the Cardinals continue to fail in identifying what outfielders can play as they hang on to Tyler O'Neill out of a fear of seeing him emerge like Randy Arozarena with Tampa Bay. Bernie does predict that Jordan Walker could be that impact hitter as he continues to impress in the Arizona Fall League. Bernie also finds positives to take away from Nolan Gorman and Juan Yepez as they both showed a knack for hitting homers despite struggling at times in their rookie years.
