Well now that our 4 man outfield rotation is back up and running again I thought this would be a perfect time to explore days of Cardinal yore and go back to the mid-90s when the Cards, though we didn’t have a whole lot at the time, had a pretty good 4 man outfield rotation. In 1993 and 1994, the Cards had some terrific athletes in the outfield in Bernard Gilkey, Ray Lankford, Mark Whiten, and Brian Jordan. Jordan was the youngest and least experienced as he had just come up from the minors and had spent much of his time in the minors as a pro football player as well, but Joe Torre had to figure out how to allocate the playing time among these 4 guys, all of whom could hit for some power and had some speed as well.
