Spring Training is in full swing at the brand-new Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium! Scott Plaza is joined by Matt Smith and special guest JD Hafron from Locked On Cardinals to break down the early highs and lows from Jupiter.
We dive deep into the starting rotation's health—from Libby’s impressive splitter to the "batting practice ball" mysteries. But the real talk starts behind the plate: is Ivan Herrera giving off "Tommy Edman vibes" with his rehab? Matt and JD explain why a "catching freight train" of prospects like Leo Bernal and Rodriguez is barreling toward St. Louis, and what that means for the current roster. Plus, we spotlight the non-roster invitees like Quinn Mathews and Nathan Church who are already making a case for a plane ticket north.
