He'll play LF against RH, Holiday will play RF

The Cardinals are open to shifting Matt Holliday from left field to right. The fact that the Cardinals entertained Berkman as a possibility suggests that the right-field platoon is anything but set.

Signing Berkman doesn't have me quaking inmy boots, but I'd still like to see Walt acquire a solid piece or two.

Wonder if they may be considering Pujols back to 3B with Berkman @ 1B? I guess it could be Berkman to LF with Holiday to RF or maybe the just want LB's bat off the bench.

Re: Cards Sign Berkman
Berkman hasn't played in the outfield since 2007 he wasn't a very good outfielder then.

Re: Cards Sign Berkman
Maybe Pujols and Austin Kearns can work on their third base skills together this off-season.

Re: Cards Sign Berkman
It's going to be Berkman in LF, Holiday in RF, and Rasmus in CF. And you know it's only a matter of time before LaRussa takes out Rasmus and puts Jay in CF. That's a really bad defensive outfield...

Why? So he could trade Garcia to the A's for an injured southpaw?
