Supposedly Maddon wanted to bat Schwarber 1st last year but the data guys suggested Fowler batting lead off lead to more runs.

Indeed he is but he has such pop in his bat that i wouldn't use him as leadoff, of course Maddon knows better so let's go
When the lineup turns over is where you hope to take advantage of his power, etc. with guys on base.
Heyward, Jay, Almora, Baez need to get on base at bottom of order for Schwarber and Bryant at the top.

One thing I hope we don't see from Russell with his new found power is him trying to hit one out every AB..
We'll see a lot of Ks and pop ups if he does

Maybe I'm just biased against "national broadcasters" but I think these announcers are tough to listen to.

Of course, Matheny's butt cheeks get all clenched over it.

Cards lead MLB in people with sticks up their ass.

Good, a very much needed quick inning for Lester

Trying to figure out why Cardinal fans still boo Heyward..
I'd actually applaud that him and his suck ass bat is gone
