A consistent power hitter with a .242 career average, 12+ homers and 40+ RBIs in each of the last four seasons, Nootbaar’s return adds crucial firepower to the lineup. His absence was due to surgery for Haglund’s deformities — painful heel bone growths — which he addressed after the season ended. While trade talks may come later, his immediate impact solidifies left or center field and strengthens the Cardinals’ roster, especially with other players sidelined. Welcome back, Nootbaar — the team’s offense just got a lot better. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
