Ivan Herrera started the year with 4 HR's in his first 7 games leading the Cardinals. Since then the Cardinals have played 22 games total and Herrera is still leading the Cardinals with 4 dingers.
In those that first week or so , the Cardinals were 4th in team HR's .. Now they have dropped to 15th in the MLB.
Others still trailing Herrera in HR's are: Donovan & Noot 3 each, Arenado & Walker with 2 each. Just 5 players with multiple HR's .
A lot of teams score over 50% of their runs via the 'long ball' . Cards are not doing it right now.
In 2024, the Cardinals were 4th in HR's in the NL Central . The team lacks power.
Cards lost their HR shots when Herrera got hurt
