Schumaker has spent several offseasons under McGwire's tutelage. "I didn't know how this was going to work. He's a 6-foot-5, 220-something-pound man, and I'm just a little leadoff hitter," Schumaker said. "But hitting is hitting. There's a good hitting position for everyone. That was one of the things he stressed. I didn't know what to expect, and here it has turned into this relationship that has really helped my career." http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Skip_Schumaker/605040 605040 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 9:44:02 EDT kffl.com http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Skip_Schumaker/605040 Cardinals | Schumaker hopes to improve in offseason The St. Louis Post-Dispatch's Derrick Goold reports St. Louis Cardinals 2B Skip Schumaker plans to spend the offseason working on his defense. Schumaker is penciled in to start at second base again in 2010. "More flexibility," said Schumaker. "I thought about stretching once last winter. This winter, it's more important. Quickness. Quickness is now a big part of my game. I never thought about quickness before. It was always about running the ball down, and I could do that if I got a bad jump." http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Skip_Schumaker/591354 591354 Mon, 19 Oct 2009 8:28:01 EDT kffl.com http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Skip_Schumaker/591354 Skip Schumaker, a former outfielder who was converted last year to a second baseman, hopes to further Skip Schumaker, a former outfielder who was converted last year to a second baseman, hopes to further improve his infield skills this winter.

His 2-for-3 effort that included a walk, an RBI and a run scored wasn't enough as the Cards fell to the Dodgers 5-3 in the NLDS opener.

Our View: Schumaker has been invaluable to the Cardinals this season and looks to have carried his consistent bat into the postseason. Expect him to continue to produce and, if the rest of the Cardinal bats wake up, his efforts will pay dividends.
