Well with the draft only a couple of days away here we are with the final college wrap-up of the season. I am guessing the Cardinals will take a few players that you have seen on these pages throughout the season. This was regional week in the NCAA, so not everyone was playing. The players [...]

For the third consecutive year I was handed the reins of the Cardinals organization in the minorleagueball.com mock draft. This was the highest pick I have had, and I was hoping to add some impact talent to the system. I believe I was able to accomplish that goal. Check it out after the break and [...]

Sorry I was a day late, but I am sure I wasn’t the only one that had a busy weekend. Memorial day weekend is usually conference tournament weekend, and that means some guys played a lot more games that usual and others were done pretty quickly. Conor Gillaspie used the MVC tourny to pad his [...]

Yesterday erik gave everybody a look at how he thinks the first 13 picks of the draft are going to go, and today I am trying to figure out the top 20 prospects available. We are about a month out, and while there is some consensus starting to develop with the college players, the [...]

Another rough weekend for the top college pitchers, but Christian Friedrich took advantage and fired a great game. I don’t know if the Cardinals will look at relievers early, but this week I decided to add a few of them in the report. The bats continue to roll as Yonder Alonso and Brett Wallace show [...]

Today the Cardinals have promoted Mike Parisi to the major leagues while sending reliever Anthony Reyes to Memphis. Parisi becomes the first member of the Cardinals’ 2004 draft class to make it to St. Louis. It is not clear what his role will be, but I would expect he will just assume Reyes’ [...]

It was a rough weekend for the top college prospects as nearly all of the pitchers struggled, and most of the top bats struggled as well. I put most of the pitching lines up, but the hitting side is a little limited in this week’s report. There still were some impressive performances like [...]
