Hazelbaker certainly seems to roar out of the gate. Last year, in his rookie season as a Cardinal, he started off 13-for-27 with three home-runs. This year, after we picked him up off waivers, he managed the remarkable feat of going the entire opening week of the season without being retired at the plate, while appearing in every contest. Hazelbaker went 6-for-6 with a pair of walks over the first six games, after being close to the last position player to make the roster. Inevitably, his bat cooled off, and the 2-for-20 streak which followed got Jeremy sent down to Reno early in May, and spent most of the rest of the year there.
