Alec Burleson is stepping up as the St. Louis Cardinals’ unexpected clubhouse leader this season. With so many veteran voices gone, manager Oli Marmol says Burleson’s calm, lead-by-example style is exactly what the team needs right now. He’s not the loudest guy in the room, but his work ethic and attitude have earned him serious respect from teammates. Burleson himself admits the roster is young, but he’s excited to be the go-to guy for the new faces. How do you feel about a quieter, more understated leader guiding the Cardinals this year? #Sports #Baseball #STLCards
