PT TOMORROW: NL Central—CF in St. Louis
May 9 2014
Off-season acquisition Peter Bourjos (OF, STL) was expected to man center field on a pretty consistent basis, and he began the season by starting eight of the team's first ten games.

Since then, he's come on strong, collecting five hits, including a home run in a three-game stretch.
Bourjos is not a great hitter (.700 career OPS), but his elite defense and speed have helped make up for his deficiencies with the bat. He's a long way from becoming an every day player, but perhaps his recent signs of life will give him another opportunity at semi-regular playing time....
