“There’s really no words to explain it, it’s next man up,” Burger said Sunday. “We will obviously miss Eloy for however long it takes. He was getting super hot. When he’s hot, he’s the best hitter in baseball, he’s fun to watch. Disappointing. I hope for a quick recovery.”“You lose a guy, not only is he in the middle of your lineup, but you lose a guy who’s hot in the middle of your lineup,” Grifol said. “That’s when leadership comes to the forefront.
Cardinals manager Oli Marmol is on the hot seat and not handling things well in his second year on the job, fighting with umpires and reacting defensively to innocuous questions from reporters. Could he be on his way to an early exit? Grifol didn’t get nostalgic during spring training when the Sox traveled to Surprise, Ariz., to play the Royals. He spent the previous 10 seasons in various coaching roles with the Royals before becoming the Sox manager.
