Description: Cards infielder Daniel Descalso swatted four hits Wednesday in a 16-inning marathon versus the Diamondbacks.
Insight: Descalso went 4-for-7 in the game to raise his season average to .357. He hit just .227 a year ago so don't expect this hot start to last.

Description: Daniel Descalso loves facing Reds starter Bronson Arroyo. Descalso is hitting .583 against Arroyo.
Insight: This statline probably has a lot to do with why Descalso is in the lineup at third base today instead of David Freese (0-9 lifetime against Arroyo).

Description: Daniel Descalso will be the Cardinals' Opening Day second baseman.
Insight: Descalso (.283, 1 HR, 9 RBIs) beat out Tyler Greene (.267, 2 HRs, 5 RBIs) for the starting second base job but he still has some work to do if he wants to win a spot on any fantasy rosters. Desclaso didn't provide much fantasy help in 2011 (.264, 1 HR, 28 RBIs in 148 games last season).
