In the first 10 rounds in ’18 the Cards went with 3-Ps and 8 hitters. In later rounds they got Justo (12th round) and Toerner (28th rd) In ’19 they turned it around picking 7-Ps in the top 10 rounds and 3 hitters. Romeri (12th) is a good sleeper pick and there’s YaSenka (17th) and Redmond (32th).
Of course there can be other prospects that could surprise.
If the Cards pick for positions in this year’s draft, they’ll need to look at middle infielders. In ’18 they picked Gil (SS- 3rd round) and Dunn (2B- 5th rd). In ’19 they waited until the 32nd round to select Redmond (2B)… the only other two middle infielders picked were SSs in the 39th and 40th rounds and neither signed on.
There hasn’t been much help from the International side either.
This situation will probably haunt the organization for years to come. We have already seen the effects of the lack of middle infielders in 2017 ’18 and ’19.
