Should Ryan Ludwick Be Batting Second?

Ryan Ludwick was moved to the second spot in the Cardinals batting order beginning with the final game in Milwaukee on April 11th. The move was made to jump-start Ludwick's then-struggling bat. That goal has certainly been accomplished, because Ludwick went from a .333 OPS prior to the move to a 1.132 OPS in the games since. However, the Cardinals offense that shined in that initial road trip has sputtered since returning home to face the Astros.
