Los Angeles, CA (SportsNetwork.
Authentic Robert Horry Rockets Jersey .com) - The St. Louis Cardinals announced their 25-man roster for the best-of-five
National League Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers beginning on
Friday. Game 1 starter Adam Wainwright will be joined by fellow starters John
Lackey, Lance Lynn, and Shelby Miller. The bullpen is comprised of closer Trevor
Rosenthal, Randy Choate, Sam Freeman, Marco Gonzales, Seth Maness, Carlos
Martinez, Pat Neshek and Michael Wacha. The 23-year-old Wacha will pitch out of
the pen even though he earned NLCS MVP honors last season, helping the Cardinals
to the World Series. He had trouble with a lingering shoulder injury throughout
this year and pitched just 16 2/3 innings over four September starts. Yadier
Molina and Tony Cruz are the two catchers on the roster, while Matt Adams, Matt
Carpenter, Daniel Descalso, Pete Kozma, Jhonny Peralta and Kolten Wong round out
the infield. The outfield is comprised of Peter Bourjos, Randal Grichuk, Matt
Holliday, Jon Jay and Oscar Taveras.

which plays well, Mancini said.For years, it has seemed that the outfield has
been a plentiful supply of productive fantasy performers; it may no longer be
quite the same source of offensive production -- perhaps due to an increased
emphasis on defensive performance -- but that makes the good ones even more
valuable, the best one, most valuable. That most valuable of all players is the
Angels Mike Trout, who is in a class by himself. Over the past two seasons,
Trout has scored 238 runs, 26 more than anyone else and his 82 stolen bases also
leads the majors. His .324 batting average ranks second, while home runs (57)
and RBI (180) are Top 25 totals. Put it all together and there is no one more
valuable. Pittsburghs Andrew McCutchen and Baltimores Adam Jones are next behind
Trout in runs scored over the past couple seasons, but they also bring pop to
the plate, speed to the basepaths and hit for average. In McCutchens case, his
.322 batting average over the past two seasons ranks third overall behind
Miguel Cabrera and Trout. There are a lot of outfield options that come with
question marks -- lots of upside too, but definitely question marks. Will
Milwaukees Ryan Braun, presumably clean after a PED suspension, still be a
masher? Prior to last seasons injury and suspension-shortened campaign, Braun
had four straight seasons with at least 25 home runs, 100 RBI and a .300 batting
average, with double-digit steals each season, culminating with 30-30 seasons in
2011 and 2012. The Dodgers Yasiel Puig had an immediate impact as a rookie last
season, crushing 19 home runs in 382 at-bats, and there is always the concern
that such a starburst beginning to a career can lead to a sophomore slump. Its
worth banking on talent, and Puig has lots, but beware that he may not
automatically pick up where he left off in 2013. Moving away from some of the
more volatile picks near the top of the board, there are solid, but not overly
exciting, veterans. Matt Holliday is consistent and Cincinnatis Jay Bruce
provides reliable power. Even the Yankees Carlos Beltran has been both
productive and healthy in the past couple seasons, hitting 56 home runs in more
than 1100 at-bats. Other veterans come with some variance, with upside that
makes them appealing. Texas Alex Rios is one of five outfielders to have at
leastt 40 homers and 40 stolen bases over the past two seasons; the Angels
Josh Hamilton had a miserable first season in California, but hes one year
removed from a 43 home run season in Texas.

different seasons, while Torontos Jose Bautista has played a total of 210 games
in the past two seasons, yet has still slugged 55 home runs. If youre looking to
invest in potential, you can do far worse than targeting Washingtons
Bryce Harper, a supremely-talented 21-year-old who has hit 42 home runs in his
first two big league seasons, but also plays so hard that injuries may be
inevitable if he doesnt learn how to better pick his spots. Milwaukees
Carlos Gomez had a breakthrough year as a 27-year-old in 2013 and he joins Trout
as the only outfielders with at least 40 homers and 70 stolen bases over the
past two seasons. Pittsburghs Starling Marte swiped 41 bases in his first full
season, Tampa Bays Wil Myers showed some power as a rookie, hitting 13 home runs
in 335 at-bats. There are maybe a handful of outfielders that have the potential
to hit more than 40 home runs and Miamis Giancarlo Stanton -- who has 37 and
34-homer seasons already -- is one of them. Risk with potential is also attached
to the Dodgers Matt Kemp, who has missed 145 games over the past two seasons;
the Mets Curtis Granderson, who played only 61 games for the Yankees in 2013,
but had back-to-back 40-homer seasons prior to that. The Braves Jason Heyward
had a 20-20 season in 2012 before injuries cost him 58 games last season, but
Heyward has potential to put together a big power season. Cincinnati speedster
Billy Hamilton has to have some value, for no other reason than hes the most
dangerous base-stealer in a generation. If Hamilton has even passable on-base
numbers, his steals will tilt a category. Some other young outfielders that
might provide value later in drafts or in deeper leagues include the Angels
Kole Calhoun, the Twins Oswaldo Arcia and the Brewers Khris Davis. Scott Cullen
