LAS VEGAS • If you have one must-win game today, and Cardinals manager Mike Shildt asks you to make the lineup, who plays right field?
You know the Cardinals front office wants you to write in Dexter Fowler, to pledge your allegiance to the bounce-back candidate, to get on board and voice your full support.
The Cardinals made a multi-year, multi-million dollar commitment to Fowler that included a regrettable no-trade clause. There are more than $50 million reasons for the front office to hope this next chance turns into the one that turns things around from an abysmal and injury-shortened 2018.
