I don't think those are carpenter's numbers when he's batting 3rd, which is what he's saying.Fan_In_NY wrote:Last year the average 3-hitter batted .277/.351/.476/.826AWvsCBsteeeerike3 wrote: Mars great and all but he's not a great 3 hole hitter.

Matt Carpenter over the last 2 years has hit .271/.372/.505/.877
So better in getting on base and power than the average 3-hitter.
Yeah, I'll take credit....AWvsCBsteeeerike3 wrote:Sometimes I think mo reads this board. Anyway, glad he's a Cardinal.

But when it comes time to somewhat overpay or commit to a player for longer than he will be useful they won't do it. It's not like it was with Pujols when it was going to be a massive amount of money for several years after he would be productive. If Fowler will improve the team for the next two or three seasons, and he's willing to come to STL, then get him.
