Monday’s minor league slate did not include the full roster of Cardinal’s affiliates, as Peoria had a day off and Palm Beach had their game postponed. Memphis, Springfield, and the DSL Blue squad all got the job done on the road. State College dropped their contest at home to Mahooning Valley. Johnson City will open the season tonight against Bluefield.
