We are two days into the St. Louis Cardinals spring. Alex Reyes will miss the entire 2017 season, and possibly more, due to Tommy John surgery. Lefty reliever Kevin Siegrist is reportedly experiencing shoulder soreness. Pitching prospect Corey Littrell was suspended fifty games for a failed drug test.
I, personally, am most concerned with the first of those events. Alex Reyes was going to play a factor in the St. Louis Cardinals rotation in 2017, either immediately or later down the stretch.
