Kolten Wong Happy To Leadoff

Almost from the moment the St. Louis Cardinals traded for Jason Heyward the question was raised, who will bat lead-off? Heyward filled the role for the Atlanta Braves last season and Matt Carpenter did so for the Cardinals. Both have expressed a willingness to bat anywhere Mike Matheny pencils them into the lineup, but Heyward has shared how he was groomed to bat in the middle of the lineup and Carpenter has also explained that he plans to be more aggressive this season regarding his power numbers.
