Alec Burleson News
St. Louis Cardinals outfielder/designated hitter Alec Burleson (thumb) left Tuesday's contest against the Milwaukee Brewers early after fracturing his left thumb, according to Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The 24-year-old continues to hit in the middle of the order despite slashing just .244/.300/.390 with eight bombs, 36 RBI, 34 runs, and three steals across 107 games. Fantasy managers should consider Burleson day-to-day for now and check back in for more updates.
St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Alec Burleson is not in the starting lineup on Monday against the Oakland Athletics and left-hander JP Sears. In his absence, Luken Baker will make the start at designated hitter and will bat eighth in the order against Sears. The 24-year-old left-handed-hitting Burleson will continue to sit against most southpaw, as he's currently hitting just .182 (4-for-22) against them with none of his eight home runs on the year. Overall, Burleson is slashing .244/.292/.413 with eight home runs, 15 doubles, a triple, 27 RBI and 27 runs scored in 264 plate appearances and 83 games in just his second season in the majors.
St. Louis Cardinals outfielders Alec Burleson and Dylan Carlson are the two names being most discussed by the club in trade talks following their deal of Paul DeJong to the Toronto Blue Jays. It was been widely known the Cardinals are full-blown sellers amidst a disappointing season while the club has also shipped left-hander Jordan Montgomery to the Texas Rangers and reliever Jordan Hicks to the Blue Jays. Both Burleson and Carlson have multiple years of club control attached to them, meaning a return for the young outfielders would need to be rather significant. Burleson, 24, is hitting .239 with six homers and a .685 OPS in 74 games while Carlson, also 24, is hitting .230 with five homers, three stolen bases, and a .673 OPS across 69 contests on the campaign.
