Goldschmidt hasn't quite been what every Cardinals fan hoped he would be, as he entered Sunday's game hitting .249 with 16 homers. However, he's been turning up the heat in the month of July, collecting three homers and eight runs batted in through just nine games. He's clearly getting into a groove at the plate.
