Episode Details

Rainiel Rodríguez, a 19-year-old Dominican catcher, is making waves in the Cardinals farm system, ranked MLBs 27th overall prospect and top catcher. After a stellar performance at High-A Peoria, hes been promoted to Double-A Springfield, just two steps from the majors. With a .301 average, .811 OPS, 34 homers, and 122 RBIs in 153 minor league games, Rodríguez is a force to be reckoned with. His teammates, Leo Bernal and Jimmy Crooks, are also excelling in Triple-A. Rodríguezs versatility, having played first base this season, and his elite bat keep him at the top of prospect lists. A Double-A success could lead to a Triple-A call-up this season, setting him up for a major league debut next year at just 20 years old.
