Short Story, Long Process: Delvin Perez Seeks Production To Pay Off Cardinals' Patience

After 20 consecutive games to start last season batting at the backend of Low-A Peoria’s lineup, never higher than eighth, shortstop Delvin Perez came to the ballpark the day after hitting No. 9 as a DH in a doubleheader to find his name at leadoff. He would bat first or second in 97 of his next 98 games, even as his on-base percentage dipped to .275 through June.

Catching Up Fast: About To Turn 20, Ivan Herrera's Potent Bat, Improving Defense Mask His Youth

It was only a sneak peek, a brief four-at-bat glimpse of Class AA’s rigors that the Cardinals offered catching prospect Ivan Herrera at the end of his first full summer playing in the United States. At 18, he was nearly six years younger than the average age in the Texas League, and the Cardinals didn’t hastily quantum-leap him four levels because of their need. They wanted to see what he learned.

Yadier Molina Gives St. Louis Something To Talk About

As the old ballplayer walks toward home plate, the Cardinals’ catcher calmly calls time to delay the game. That’s what they do in St. Louis, to give the crowd time to rise and applaud a former Cardinal returning to town. It’s the top of the third inning. The cheering is earsplitting.

Pipeline Q&A: Ivan Herrera

Catcher Ivan Herrera, the Cardinals’ No. 4 prospect, signed out of Panama in July 2016 for $200,000. He’s quickly established himself as one of the better catching prospects in baseball, one who carries a career .309/.397/.431 line into the 2020 season. Still a teenager, the Cardinals thought enough of him to send him to the Arizona Fall League in '19, where he more than held his own.

Cardinals Prospect Report From Spring Training

Over the years, thoughts about the Cardinals’ farm system success often tend to lean towards pitching. The Jack Flahertys and Carlos Martinezes of the world come to mind most recently.

Here Are The Cardinals' 2020 Top 30 Prospects

The Cardinals made one of the biggest offseason moves last year when they acquired six-time All-Star Paul Goldschmidt from the D-backs for a trio of young players. In the end, however, it was Cardinals’ contingent of homegrown talent that fueled the team to a National League Central title and the organization’s first postseason berth since 2015, as Jack Flaherty, Kolten Wong, Paul DeJong and Tommy Edman ultimately paced the team in Wins Above Replacement.

Kiddie Corps Of Dylan Carlson-Nolan Gorman Shines In Loss; Matt Carpenter 'Not Concerned'; Kwang-Hyun Kim Keeps It Moving; Giovanny Gallegos Struggles; Notable

Dylan Carlson didn’t start Wednesday’s game and Nolan Gorman wasn’t supposed to. But the hopes of the Cardinals’ future, perhaps sooner than we think, combined to account for three runs in the sixth and seventh innings to put their club ahead.
