Jarrett Hoffpauir

Anyone have any insight on Hoffpauir.  I really only know what I see on the stats page.  I see that he is absolutely torturing left handed pitchers and it is pulling his numbers up considerably.  I wonder if he has the ability to be a Rob Quinlan type hitter, or does he have the defensive chops to turn that platoon split into a full time job as a second baseman.  His OBP has been great all year and the Cards aren't exactly running all star guys out in the middle infield.

Quite a bit written on Hoffpauer lately
over at the "future redbirds" blog.  Upshot is that nobody really know, but the BB/K ratios are an encouraging sign that maybe this emergence is for real.

From what I hear, he's decent enough with the glove to stick if his bat is truly legit.  Not like the Cards have a lot of options anyway.
