What could have been....

I really wanted the Cards to sign him way back when.

We could use a hitter with 49 homer power. He has 1 more homer than our top 3 homerun hitters. 19 + 16 + 13 = 48 That is kinda painful.

Sigh

Another painful tidbit:

1 less homerun in 1 game than our once prized top power hitting prospect has all season

Or 3 more home runs all season than the amount of fans in the stands this entire series vs the pirates

I wanted him in 2021. Would’ve been great on that team.

Doesn't really hit vs the Cards for his career or at Busch

If you're thinking back to what-might-have-been, Harry Bader should get a mention--4 hits including a double and triple last night, scored 3 times. For his 21 games as a Phil, he's slashing 274/370/419.

Well he wouldn't be facing the Cards at Busch if he played for them. I agree they need to move the walls in this offseason though. The place is a deadball park.

More HR's in one game than the Cardinals usually hit in a week (jking....wait, am I?).

Okay this is driving me crazy. What the F is TGKS!?!?!?!

The Great Kyle Schwarber?

Is this some well-known acronym that I've never heard of?

no - just a joke some around here would tout when Kyle had a bad stretch but one that has aged like milk - dude might just be having a hall of fame career
