LD % = 19.7
Predicted BABIP = .317
Actual BABIP = .242

And he's hitting the ball hard. That can't last, look for AK to regress to the mean and start moving up the ladder.

and the rest of the offense as well...

Eck is at .229, LD% 16.7of career .301/21.5%

Pujols is .230, LD% 17.5, career .317/19.8%

Rolen is .274, LD% 15.8, career .314/20.3%

That's a lot of room for growth. I forsee a dramatic increase in offense in the next couple weeks.

Tell me again why we signed Kennedy instead of Loretta...

Didn't make any sense to me last winter and makes even less sense now..

His fundamentals running the bases and fielding to this point have been dissapointing for someone raised in the Cardinal organization..

His stock with his glove has gone down a bit with me watching him everyday. He's not as solid as I thought.

But he's hitting the ball hard, he'll start getting his fair share to fall in.

He just seems incredibly shakey to me..everything he does on the field seems like a chore..

He has had some bad hitting luck I admit..but other facets of his game need to pick up soon.
