A Primer on Minor League Free Agency - Viva El Birdos

After spending nearly 3000 words on this article, I’m fully prepared for the St. Louis Cardinals to bring in exactly 0 of the players I listed here. That’s because there’s a ton of minor league free agents. I only examined 6, but there are probably plenty of others who would make good depth options.

I do want to see the Cardinals nab a few players still on the younger side and see if they can unlock their development. Players like Jair Camargo, Micker Adolfo, Sherton Apostel, Guillermo Zuniga, and Ariel Jurado would all fit into that category.

Happy Sunday, VEB! I hope you enjoyed reading this article. Minor league free agency can have a big impact on an organization. Sometimes it doesn’t, but sometimes you find a Moises Gomez or a James Naile.
