I don’t post a lot of subscriber articles here, but this is the first of my two months of onsite spring training coverage. If you ever thought about subscribing, now would be an ideal time…
I am in Jupiter, Florida for the start of a new era of #stlcards Player Development, which unofficially began yesterday as 34 major and minor league players began an early camp. Check out the proceedings via my words and two dozen photos. https://t.co/NbjY6GMs0t pic.twitter.com/Zjpwu7uBms

I appreciate the photos. It is interesting to see guys like Rainiel Rodriquez. And wow I know you mentioned in the notes or the podcast that Walker looks like an NFL line backer and you are right. I hope the extra muscle doesn’t prevent his flexibility and instead he can use it to tap into his power even more.
Love this thread. Agree Walker looks like a linebacker. Mikolas might act serious this year. Raniel Rodriguez is a RH batter. Maybe they’ll give him some innings at 1B. Alex Willis in camp is interesting. Hope springs eternal, as they say. I haven’t felt this good in months. Thanks, Brian.
We have an Alec Willis name in print sighting. Will Brian present photo evidence? This is way bigger than aliens and might rival Nessy herself.
Don’t try cardboard cutouts of Willis’s likeness. That worked for a while in Scotland, but Cardinal Nation won’t be fooled. We want scientifically viable proof of Alec Willis actually existing in his natural environment…the spring complex.This is the year Willis shows what he can do and stays healthy (relatively) as well! I have a good feeling about this!
FWIW – Kiley McDaniel and ESPN have these Cardinals in their top 200:
30. Wetherholt
58. Mathews
65. Hence
104. Bernal
110. Hjerpe
146. Yairo Padilla
