It’s no secret that first base is going to be a competition going into spring training this year for the St. Louis Cardinals. We have two candidates in Brandon Moss and Matt Adams. They both are kind of cut from the same mold, being big left handed power bats, who have shown some promise and struggle in their careers.
On one hand we have a guy who has come up through the Cardinals’ system and has had a lot of promise surrounding him for some time. We saw Adams come up in 2013, he became a bit of a fan favorite, as he was knocking homers left and right off of the bench.
