Just 6 weeks ago - on May 15
Matt Carpenter was hitting .145 and looked old. Not like 32 years old baseball player old but like a 55 years old softball player old.
He had 2 Homeruns and 4 doubles - He slugged (not average, slugging percentage) .224 in April FFS.
I thought he was done. He was one of my favorite Cardinals and the thought he was washed up, well that made me sad
Because "Cinderella story, this kid comes outta nowhere to become an all star, and win pennants" (Read that in a Carl the green keeper's voice)
But, if you looked at his stats this morning he is hitting .259, and slugging .511 with 22 double and 15 homeruns.
He was arc welding hot this last week - Look at this slash line
.478 AVG/.613OBP/1.000SLG/1.613OPS.
He went 5 of 5 with 2 homeruns, 3 RBI and 5 runs scored last night against the Indians - who started COREY freaking KLUBER.
Welcome back to all star status Marp. We are really glad to see you again
