Cardinals Land TWO Silver Slugger Finalists: Burleson and Donovan for Utility Crown

The St. Louis Cardinals might not have had a powerhouse offense in 2025, but two of their most consistent bats are now Silver Slugger finalists, and both in the same category. Joe Roderick and Brenden Schaeffer break down why Alec Burleson and Brendan Donovan were named finalists for the National League utility Silver Slugger Award, how their numbers compare to Jake Cronenworth, and why this might be the Cardinals’ best shot at an offensive award this offseason. The guys also look at other NL finalists, from Shohei Ohtani to Freddie Freeman, and discuss whether Iván Herrera could have been in the DH mix if not for injury. Learn more about your ad choices.
