Cardinals Shake Up Catcher Depth | St. Louis Cardinals News
Description
The Cardinals are shaking up their catching corps, calling up 22-year-old prospect Leo Bernal from Triple-A Memphis to stabilize a struggling position—while sending 25-year-old Jimmy Crooks back down, sparking surprise given his recent solid performance and the team’s rebuilding goals. Bernal brings defensive upside, including a knack for throwing out basestealers, despite past errors and passed balls. Veteran Victor Scott is also back up, adding pop and speed. With the team near the bottom in RBIs, homers, and batting average—and defense failing to stop stolen bases—the move comes just before a big series as St. Louis scrambles to find answers at catcher.
