Episode Details

Nelson Velazquez, a Puerto Rican outfielder, has made a strong impression in spring training with the St. Louis Cardinals, potentially securing the left field spot for Opening Day. Despite a low-key signing in January, Velazquezs three-year major league experience and impressive spring performance have turned an open competition into a clear winner. The Cardinals outfield also includes options like Jordan Walker, Victor Scott, and Nathan Church, with top prospect Joshua Baez heading to Triple-A and Lars Nootbaar recovering from surgery. Meanwhile, the World Baseball Classic concludes with Cardinals legend Matt Holliday coaching hitting for Team USA.
