campaigns Written by RotoWire Staff Burleson went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a 5-4 win over the Mets in the second game of Sunday's doubleheader Burleson opened the scoring with his blast off Tylor Megill in the second inning Burleson sat for four straight games from April 25-28 but he's been a regular in the lineup versus right-handed pitchers since that stretch He still needs to make some improvements with the bat -- he was limited to one hit in both games of Sunday's doubleheader and has gone seven contests without a multi-hit effort nine runs scored and two stolen bases over 105 plate appearances as he hit 21 homers over 152 games in 2024 Get your fix of exclusive baseball coverage from our colleagues at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, regularly posted to the Tulsa World newspaper, website and app, at stlpinchhits.com The Cardinals' Alec Burleson (41) hits a single off Mets starting pitcher Blade Tidwell in the first inning of a game Sunday at Busch Stadium in St Coming off a March and April stretch during which he did not homer and produced just three extra-base hits in 85 at-bats to begin his third full season in the majors Cardinals slugger Alec Burleson views his path to the pros as hinging on his strong bat The former 2020 MLB draft pick who batted .300 in two minor league seasons and led the International League in hitting with a .331 batting average in 2022 described his development as one where he’s “figured it out" along the way The stretch he’s experienced at the plate to begin the 2025 season is no different “I've hit my whole life,” Burleson said Sunday morning just because I've figured it out my whole life.” Through 29 games as the Cardinals' primary designated hitter the 26-year-old Burleson has slugged .289 and produced six RBIs His expected slugging percentage sits in the bottom 5% of qualified major league hitters Ahead of his start at designated hitter in Game 1 of Sunday’s doubleheader at Busch Stadium against the Mets Burleson’s most recent extra-base hit came on April 9 His most recent home run in a regular-season game came on Aug Burleson ended the 2024 regular season with a .269 batting average and a .420 slugging percentage in 152 games The left-handed hitter clubbed 21 home runs and produced a team-high 78 RBIs as he set multiple career highs on offense — though he experienced a down September during which he hit .202 and slugged .226 across 84 at-bats “I'm pretty close to finding the swing again and finding the setup and the mode and stuff like that,” Burleson said I think you guys will be talking to me more about the games rather than what I need to do.” Burleson has remained in the top 12% in the majors for whiff rate and in the top 20% in strikeout rate He’s produced an average exit velocity (90.4 mph) that ranks above league average and is similar to his quality of contact in 2024 when he had an average exit velocity of 89.7 mph Burleson described the difference between hitting for contact and power as “not far off” and one that requires capitalizing on pitcher mistakes Guys with high average are the ones that can hit pitchers pitches for singles The 26-year-old slugger said he isn’t “doing anything new” when it comes to his work to provide more power for his club He feels he is “on the right track” and pointed to his recent at-bats as an example Burleson collected one hit — a single — in four at-bats against the Mets He also lined out on a ball hit to center field that jumped off his bat at 103.6 mph five of the last seven balls Burleson put into play before the start of the doubleheader registered exit velocities faster than 100 mph He recorded a sixth hard-hit ball with an exit velocity above 100 mph by lining a 103.2 mph single to right field in his first at-bat of Game 1 I think it's on the way,” the 26-year-old said Burleson followed with a home run in his first at-bat in Sunday's second game Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said the decision to have Jose Barrero start at shortstop in Game 1 of Sunday’s doubleheader made the “most sense” in managing shortstop Masyn Winn’s workload considering Sunday’s doubleheader marked the second doubleheader

A severe thunderstorm watch has just been issued for Brazos County and Burleson County scattered thunderstorms are possible in the afternoon hours Friday just like Thursday’s storm chance if the “cap” can break Read: EXPLAINER: Why Houston missed the storm bullet Thursday morning we could see storms starting to form in our eastern counties more robust storms are possible north and east of Harris County The chance could stick around as we get into the dinnertime hours As the cold front begins pushing closer to our area it’ll help break the “cap” and allow for storms to pop off Some could quickly become strong to severe a line of storms forms out ahead of the incoming cold front Houston remains relatively rain-free through most of the evening a majority of the line starts to fall apart Showers and rowdy thunderstorms are possible in the overnight hours as we sleep through the night Friday into Saturday Once we get into the early morning hours of Saturday the front will have passed through Houston We’ve seen consistency in computer model runs of potential strong to severe storms for Friday A level 1 out of 5 includes the southern portions of Harris County level 2 out of 5 includes northern portions of Harris County and all of the Brazos Valley and Piney Woods areas All modes of severe weather are possible Friday but the main threats include large hail and damaging winds they could dump a decent amount of rain in a short window This raises the risk of flash flooding from a level 1 out of 5 along our coastal communities to a level 2 out of 5 further inland

Last spring, when appeared to be very much like a man without a spot on the Cardinals’ 2024 roster he kept doing the math over and over in his head and he wasn’t very encouraged with the numbers that kept coming up and then we signed [DH Matt Carpenter] and [shortstop Brandon Crawford] those guys have to be here,’ and those were some blows to me,” Burleson recalled this week upon reporting to the Cardinals' Spring Training headquarters because I was doing the math over and over and it wasn’t working out for me Then I’d come up with an equation where maybe it would work out and maybe I’d make the team but what I did -- I hit and I played good defense -- and it worked out.” Even though Burleson’s chances of making the Cardinals' roster out of Spring Training looked bleak last March he still had an unbreakable confidence simmering just below the surface His comments at the time proved prophetic -- “I’m going to hit I’m going to hit in this league for a long time After having those comments read back to him this week To make it in the big leagues -- a sport where many are often consumed by the failure involved with hitting -- one must possess an unbreakable “No matter what somebody is saying about this team or me personally We joke about it with me a lot -- ‘Just leave your glove in the locker bring your bat and hit.’ But I still want to be able to be plugged in defensively Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol showed faith in Burleson in 2024 even when he often hit into bad luck and struggled for stretches in 2023 Marmol said the determination that Burleson showed last spring -- even when he looked like he might be the odd man out -- speaks to his character and mental toughness Sign up to receive our daily Morning Lineup to stay in the know about the latest trending topics around Major League Baseball “You can build off that feeling of never being comfortable knowing what it felt like and understanding it will work out,” Marmol said “The better guys can get at not playing GM and just playing the game And he would tell you that now based on how he was processing that pressure last spring.” Those kinds of metrics also suggest that Burleson could be on the verge of further blossoming. With Paul Goldschmidt gone -- and Nolan Arenado a trade candidate -- could Burleson have a 25-homer but I don’t have any kinds of numbers to put on it,” he said “I definitely want to improve on last year I was happy with that being my first full season but now that I know what success feels like The NFL has officially staked its claim to Christmas Day The ratings have made that clear, but Roger Goodell’s announcement of a third game on December 25th — two on Netflix and one on Amazon — cements it The league is positioning itself as synonymous with Christmas Nate Burleson, part of Netflix’s broadcast team alongside Ian Eagle and J.J. Watt, echoed this sentiment. While Eagle and Watt will reunite as CBS Sports’ No. 2 team this fall, Burleson, a regular in the studio, made his mark in the booth this holiday And he wasn’t shy about how the NFL is making its move on the holiday “Money talks and all the rest walks,” Burleson said on Front Office Sports Today the NBA has dominated Christmas for a long time; we want in on the action or I’m gonna let you deal with Christmas how you want to with the movies that you’re showing.’ And They did a great job not just producing up the game I believe that the NFL has cemented its position on that day that was notoriously known as an NBA day.” Burleson made sure to shout out LeBron James in the process But he also made it clear that while LeBron may be the king of basketball the NFL is king,” Burleson explained This is how I knew the NFL has successfully replaced the NBA on Christmas Day waiting for some type of cool promo for the NBA some guys shooting into the nets with the jingle bells That’s because they realized the NFL is here; it’s here to stay.” I’m in the studio most of the time for every show I’m on I don’t oftentimes get to see the guys that I talk about because I’ve been in the studio for so long it feels good to walk on the field in the pregame and guys call ‘Unc’ and ‘Grandpa.’ I appreciate that.” It’s safe to say the league has successfully muscled its way into a holiday once owned by the NBA Sam has been a staff writer for Awful Announcing and The Comeback He also has a love/hate relationship with the New York Mets and Jets The discussion of an antisemitic sign at Barstool Sports' Philadelphia bar continues to evolve you don't have a ton of leverage to negotiate." "I'm a free agent on July 1 and can't wait to dig in on my next ventures."  "Even the Dave Campo era had more sizzle." by Chris Murray It might not be a make-or-break season for Nevada wide receivers Marshaun Brown and Nate Burleson II considering both will be redshirt sophomores in 2025 But they're each looking at the upcoming campaign as crucial in their attempts to establish themselves as impact players for the Wolf Pack "Time's running out," Burleson II said "I've already been here for three years It doesn't feel like I've been here three years so I'm just going out there every day trying to get better." Added Brown of his goals this season: "Ball Nevada lost its top-two pass catchers from last season in Jaden Smith (62/849/7) and Cortez Braham Jr The Wolf Pack returns starting slot receiver Marcus Bellon and tight end Jace Henry who started four games before a season-ending injury Both of those players did most of their work last season in the middle of the field Explosivity on the outside could come down to Brown and Burleson II "I think the two guys that stand out to me 100 percent are Nate Burleson Jr and Marshaun," Nevada head coach Jeff Choate said "I think those guys have the talent and ability We can't just keep bringing guys in and saying you're the next guy.' Those guys need to take that step and they both had really good offseasons." Wolf Pack wide receivers coach James Price said his position is "wide receiver by committee right now" as Nevada wraps up spring camp Friday The depth chart will be more solidified when fall camp begins in July While Brown and Burleson II will have plenty of competition for starting jobs the path is open for both to earn those spots with Nevada counting on big things from them "They're rising to the challenge right now," Price said "We challenged them this offseason that You've been here long enough and we expect a lot of things out of you go out there and consistently dominate.'" Both receivers are well known locally as Brown was a star at Bishop Manogue High before signing with Nevada while Burleson II's parents were both Hall of Fame athletes for the Wolf Pack 201-pounder who has next-level measurables while Burleson II is 6-2 and 161 pounds and is arguably the offense's fastest player with bloodlines of a long-time NFL wideout (Nate Sr.) and college track star (Atoya) "I think both of them have a very different skill set those are two guys that we're trusting to get meaningful reps come game time this fall," Price said "I think they're starting to build that foundation here in spring." The Wolf Pack brought in a pair of transfer wideouts in Texas Tech's Jordan Brown and Southern Miss' Dakota Thomas both of whom could figure quickly into major playing time Brown and Burleson II have both gotten their feet wet in their first two college seasons Brown has six catches for 76 yards while Burleson II has five catches for 89 yards including a 46-yard touchdown catch against Fresno State Both players said they learned a lot last season from Smith and Braham and carry a bigger pep in their step this spring with starting jobs more attainable Each said consistency is the key to earning playing time with those major reps something both have talked about since joining the Wolf Pack as true freshmen in 2022 "We came in here together and that's something that's been on our to-do list since we got here," Brown said We just have that mentality of when we go out there We just encourage each other before the snap We've gotta do what we've go to do I feel a lot of the experience I got last year has helped me be more comfortable out there on the field Just being in the same situations over and over Added Burleson II: "I've definitely been more consistent in the last year Pick one thing to work on every day has been one of the things I've worked on It's definitely a fulfilling feeling knowing the work you put in that people don't see you can see it happening on the field with you making plays Even if Brown and Burleson II emerge as starters in 2025 another local fan favorite as a Truckee High graduate who is expected to be the group's star His long road through four colleges landed him back in Northern Nevada last season where he proved he's a Mountain West-caliber starter after catching 39 passes for 522 yards and four touchdowns The Wolf Pack believes he'll be even more productive this season "He's an ultimate competitor," Price said on and off the field he's somebody I trust wholeheartedly he's gonna find a way to compete and win His elite trade is his competitive excellence he's hell of student and he leads those men every day." was vastly improved from the two years prior But the Wolf Pack will have a new quarterback leading the offense after Brendon Lewis transferred to Memphis with their success partially dependent on whether Brown and Burleson II can take the next step in their development from young prospects to legitimate players "A lot of guys have a decision to make "You either back down from that challenge and you just kind of drift in the program or you rise to the challenge and you say 'I'm gonna be the guy.' They've served their time on the scout team they've served time as backups and those are two guys that want to compete for starting positions and so far they're setting themselves up for success."

Burleson Centennial posted a 5-6 record a year ago but made the playoffs falling in a close 48-42 double overtime loss to Georgetown a game in which the Spartans nearly rallied from an early 28-0 hole "This is a dream come true,” said Meyer in the BISD release “I would like to thank the hiring committee and Coach Ozee for putting their trust in me but for all that they do to make Burleson ISD a special place I would also like to thank Coach Geller for his leadership which has helped guide and prepare me for this next chapter I am excited to add to the great legacy that we have built here at Centennial Most of all I am excited to lead such a great group of young men I couldn’t ask for a better team to coach Coach Meyer’s squad competes in the tough 7-5A Division I that features state runner-up Highland Park along with Red Oak Tyler and Johnson County rivals Joshua and Cleburne We've been the Bible of Texas football fans for 64 years By joining the DCTF family you'll gain access to all of our exclusive content and have our magazines mailed to you Nevada Sports Net will honor influential African-American coaches athletes or administrators with ties to Northern Nevada ties to celebrate Black History Month we feature Nevada Hall of Famers Nate and Atoya Burleson When Nate Burleson first met his future wife Nate was a fresh-faced Nevada Wolf Pack football freshman in 1999 while Atoya was a senior track and field standout on the verge of graduation and I was the one trying to get into a relationship with her," Nate said I remember going to a party right off campus right across the street from Nye Hall and I was with a couple of freshmen and she was in the backyard of this party and I saw her from a distance and I was that's the most beautiful woman in the world.' And I was talking to my friend 'That's going to be my girlfriend.' He said She's going to be my girlfriend.' He said He introduced himself to Atoya and kissed her hand in an attempt to make her smile "I just wanted to be everywhere she was in order for her to see me and then hopefully I could wear her down and muster up the courage to ask her out The Burlesons are one of only two husband-wife pairings in the Wolf Pack Hall of Fame Nate was inducted in 2012 and Atoya was part of the most recently elected 2024 class they have two sons playing football for the Wolf Pack in Nate II who recently completed his second season at Nevada who redshirted as a true freshman last year Atoya said the fact Nate was redshirting during his first season at Nevada in 1999 helped their relationship blossom "I think the great thing about Nate and the reason I was willing to give him an opportunity is he didn't play his first year," Atoya said "A lot of people don't know that I hadn't started the season quite yet so we were able to keep talking to each other and I learned he was actually a genuine human being There's always those stereotypical things you here It really gave me an opportunity to know who Nate is." Added Nate: "It took some time for her to actually take me seriously." One of the reasons Atoya was reluctant at first to date Nate was because she had already been offered a scholarship to get her Masters' degree at Texas She didn't want a long-distance relationship so she wasn't looking for a serious relationship "It just so happened the University of Nevada offered me a similar scholarship with a graduate assistantship," Atoya said "I could work on campus and stay in the sports realm with the coaches I guess I'm staying!' I was supposed to move a month later so it happened right on time and the rest is history."
