Bold Prediction: Bourjos Will Make the Cardinals Look Foolish

This week the Crashburn staff will be posting our bold predictions for the 2016 Phillies season.

The St. Louis Cardinals organization has done a lot of things right over the last decade and a half. In 2003, they swapped one (admittedly great) season of J.D. Drew for a prospect you may have heard of named Adam Wainwright. They let franchise icon Albert Pujols walk when his free agent price tag became too unwieldy. Their player development staff has turned early-, mid-, and late-round draft picks into major league regulars at obscene rates.
