Let’s go back to a time long past, St. Louis Cardinals fans. To a time where people believed that Dexter Fowler leading off would be a good thing, and that Matt Carpenter should hit third. Carpenter was significantly better as a leadoff throughout his career than at any other spot in the lineup, and it showed when the change was made.
Now, the talk of the town is moving Kolten Wong up to the second spot all the way up from hitting in the lower part of the lineup for the past two plus seasons.
