Episode Details

The St. Louis Cardinals are undergoing a significant transformation, trading away stars like Nolan Arenado and Willson Contreras to focus on a youth movement. The team, which finished last season with a 78-84 record, has acquired prospects and draft picks under new president of baseball operations Chaim Bloom. The trades have opened up opportunities for homegrown talent such as Masyn Winn and JJ Wetherholt, who have shown promise in the minors and spring training. On the pitching side, the Cardinals have signed Dustin May and are relying on prospects like Matthew Liberatore and Michael McGreevy. While FanGraphs projects the team to win 75 games and finish fifth in the division, there is potential for the Cardinals to surprise if their young players develop quickly.
