He ended up stroking a nice liner off it for a basehit.

He did that again for his last hit last night against a righty; he got the bathead out and caught further out in front against Grimm and was able to drive it.

I've not noticed if he's been doing it consistently, but it's obvious when he's taking a decent cut vs. when he's taking that constrained mess of a hack.
To my amateur understanding that means he is getting the bathead around in front of the ball, that means he's getting to the ball quicker.

That would seem to me to show up on the tape pretty easily. Even Mabry could just go duplicate this swing Hayward.

Depends. When you're alligator arming it like he was, he was getting there in plenty of time but couldn't barrel a ball up unless he let it get way deep into the strike zone. At that point, he's catching it before he could drive it and everything is a grounder.

With better arm extension he may not be getting there quicker (he almost certainly isn't) but he can now actually barrel the ball in the front of the plate and it allows him to hit it with much greater authority and to even pull it from time to time.

Like I said, I don't see how they haven't just run tapes of his swing from his rookie year. That's the swing he should have.

Iirc, he kept getting hammered in so he basically turned himself into a slappy hitter, instead of learning to recognize and pull for power

He's probably a little dinged up. Carpenter is 4-22 with 7 K's against Liriano. Good day to get him some extra healing time. But, of course everyone is saying he is fine.

With the Cardinals history of BS in medical info on players, we should always be skeptical.

He is notorious for taking hours and hours of grounders and batting practice before games. Maybe now that he is playing every game and into November, maybe he should back off that schedule.

Jenifer Langosch ‏@LangoschMLB 1h1 hour ago Matt Carpenter down with "extreme fatigue." #stlcards left him in St. Louis for this series to rest.

Left him in STL?

My STL medical staff BS meter is a tingling.

Yeah, I just.....I literally don't have the words...this team, as good as they are, should just stop with the bunting. They're just terrible at it.

Jesus, Hrobosky's dumb; he's blaming Wacha for Molina's drop at home plate. Was out by 10 feet.Questioned Wacha's choice to throw to 2nd after looking McCutcheon back to 3rd.

I would bet that he has insomnia. That, coupled with a workaholic routine, will drain your batteries quickly.

I have no reason to doubt Carpenter at all. He's probably just a bit too intense. But since this is the Cardinals medical staff, the incompetent mother****ers probably injected him with Trypanosomes, so the sorry bastard likely has African Sleeping Sickness now
