The Cardinals are showing us how it’s done

Randall Grichuk and Adam Duvall have a lot in common as baseball players. They’ve been corner outfielders for their respective clubs in the NL Central division. Both stand 6’1″. Grichuk weighs 205, Duvall 215.

Each of their teams has a fresh backlog of outfielders. The Cardinals recent trade for Marcell Ozuna of the Marlins and the emergence of Tommy Pham turned Grichuk into the club’s fourth outfielder. Likewise, the arrival of Jesse Winker creates an extra full-time outfielder for the Reds.

In terms of performance, Grichuk and Duvall have been quite similar the past two seasons.

Duvall has an edge in counting stats (WAR) because he played in more games.
