Yesterday, I detailed why the 2018 St. Louis Cardinals will be a disaster. Today, I will be detailing why the 2018 St. Louis Cardinals are going to win the National League Central.
By definition, these stances are contradictory, but this is the nature of how the St. Louis Cardinals are constructed. For the better part of the decade, the Cardinals have been consistent, built upon Matt Holliday and Adam Wainwright having the kinds of seasons you can set your watch to, but in 2018, there are tons of question marks.
But question marks aren’t inherently a bad thing—for instance, I have no questions about how the 2018 Miami Marlins season is going to go.
