I'm excited to see Joey Gallo's late season call-up that is possible.
We talk about the Astros issues with K's. Did I read right that this cat has a 40% K rate?

I could definitely see JHey hitting 25 HRs, I think he still has room to grow power wise. I don't think the Cards lineup has anything to do with it though.

J Hey.
Excited about him every year. Disappointed by him every year.

He's hit 1st or 2nd the majority of the last two seasons and in turn it seems like he was less aggressive of a hitter judging by his BB%
Go back to 2012 when he hit 27 HRs hitting predominantly in the middle of the lineup.. he was more aggressive of a hitter.
Im sure STL will probably continuing treating him as a top of the order guy, which will probably continue to top out his HR numbers around 20

Matheny said today they are planning on Heyward being middle of the order.

The combinations of who could bat where have, however, already been shaved by one, with Matheny confirming Saturday that he will not open the season with Heyward as his leadoff hitter. That makes it ever more likely that Matt Carpenter will retain his place atop the lineup.
"Right now for us, I want this guy to show up with the freedom to be a ballplayer and not have to conform," Matheny said. "[Heyward] has been very clear that he wasn't comfortable [batting leadoff with the Braves]. We'd be idiots not to at least acknowledge that and say, 'OK, how about you come over into a new situation and we make you as comfortable as you can be as long as it fits with our club?'"
"I'm perfectly fine with that," Heyward said of the Cardinals' intent to insert him somewhere lower in the order. "I didn't come up as [a leadoff hitter]. I don't want to be up there trying to do something and not being very good at it. It will be nice to settle in somewhere. It will free me up mentally."
