A Look at the Cardinals' Offensive Leaders for 2026

The Cardinals finished with the National League's 10th most potent offense this past season by scoring 720 runs.

Many of their offensive struggles came Busch Stadium as they scored 100 more runs on the road (410) than they did at home (310) in 2026. The 410 road runs were third in the National League, while the 310 runs at Busch Stadium were the fewest in the league. Much the same was true with their 99 road home runs (tied for 8th in the NL) and their 68 home homers (15th in the NL).

Here is a look at the top two Cardinals players in just about every major statistical category on offense in 2026. Not surprisingly, standouts Alec Burleson and Jordan Walker dominated offensively for the Cardinals all season.
