Within the first 90 seconds of his camp-opening comments, Cardinals executive John Mozeliak said one of the "critical" questions of spring was whether the team could stay healthy. He noted that is something he has probably said in all 17 years of addressing the media on the first day of official workouts. Injuries, after all, are part of the game, and they're definitely a rite of spring. Consider the past week for the Cardinals. In order, the Cardinals had 30% of their planned opening day lineup deal with injuries that make them questionable or "doubtful" for March 28 at Dodger Stadium: Lars Nootbaar (fractured rib), Sonny Gray (hamstring), and Tommy Edman (wrist surgery). St. Louis Post-Dispatch baseball writer Lynn Worthy joins the Best Podcast in Baseball to discuss the news of the week and the openings those injuries create in the roster and the lineup. Worthy, while talking with BPIB host and baseball writer Derrick Goold, brings up a key question for the Cardinals: Will they stick to their defensive-oriented plans and side with the best gloves available for two potential openings in the outfield, or will the need for offense be so much that they have to abandon that defense-first goal before the season even starts? Worthy and Goold also detail what young outfielders Michael Siani and Victor Scott II have done to force their way into the conversation at midspring and whether either of them could emerge as a starter in that first game against Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers, which is on the horizon.
