One of the hardest things for a manager to deal with is playing struggling veterans. They get pressure from the front office to play them considering they are likely making a lot more money than the young exciting pups. It is incredibly difficult to justify these decisions especially when the fans want you to play the best player regardless of money. Can you think of any situations like this with the St. Louis Cardinals?
However, I am here to discuss how we can find a happy medium and put these veterans in spots where they have been most successful in their careers.
