Summary
The St. Louis Cardinals are defying expectations, sitting second in their division and locked into a Wild Card spot thanks to a young, energized core led by Jordan Walker and rookie JJ Wetherholt. Rumors swirl that top prospect Joshua Báez — third-ranked in the Cardinals’ system — is on the verge of his MLB debut. Former GM Jim Bowden calls him “on the doorstep,” praising his legit power, speed, and strong arm. Báez is crushing it in Triple-A with 25 homers and a breakout season, striking out a bit but showing all the tools to become the next Cardinals star.
