As of now, the Cardinals appear to be headed into spring training with the basic intention of playing the young guys in the outfield. There is of course the rumor that Marcell Ozuna will re-sign and there are two older guys in the way, but at least one young guy has to start every game if the 40 man roster doesn’t change. And while Jose Martinez may get an annoying amount of playing time, he’s not going to be a regular starter, so at least two young guys will play a lot.
What I’m going to try to do is map out an ideal playing time for the field, with as realistic a estimate as I can get.
