I love Bader because he brings a bounce to the game. It always feels a bit more exciting when he’s back there in center defensively. I can’t remember the exact date but the stl beat writer was on Saturday sports talk with lauren Tate and was saying that Bader was difficult to coach because he consistently sought out advice from his personal trainer over the coaching staff. The staff had a major issues with this and it made Bader not as coachable in the box. Not sure how true that is (anyone else hear similar things?), but Bader needs waaay more disciple to be an effective hitter.
