Signed to a minor league deal this offseason, Velzquez dominated spring training and now proves he belongs with a breakout performance that helped the Cards edge the Cubs 6-5. At just 27, he’s already delivering the right-handed power the team craves, having hit 17 homers in 53 games last year. His call-up, paired with Jimmy Crooks’ rise, signals a promising offensive reboot for St. Louis. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
