Welcome to the fourth edition of my St. Louis Cardinals’ MLB Draft Preview. If you have not seen the previous three on Chris Betts, Brady Aiken, and Kevin Newman go ahead and check those out after reading this. The fourth option I see for the St. Louis Cardinals in the first round is left-handed hitting OF D.J. Stewart out of Florida State. Coming in at 6’0″ and 230 pounds, Stewart looks like a shorter Jhonny Peralta or a much shorter Matt Adams.
Offensively, this guy could be a very good player at the big league level.
