The Cardinals are expected to select JoJo Parker, a high school shortstop, as the last pick in the top five, indicating their focus on securing versatile young talent.

The St. Louis Cardinals are set to face the Chicago White Sox in a doubleheader on Thursday after a previous victory in which they dominated 12-2. The Cardinals aim to build on their recent success and maintain their momentum against the struggling White Sox.

The Cardinals are focusing on developing their young talent like Wetherholt, showcasing their commitment to building a competitive roster for the future.

Miles Mikolas has been a steady presence in the Cardinals' rotation, providing innings and experience. His ability to pitch deep into games makes him an attractive option for playoff teams looking to solidify their starting five.

Erick Fedde has shown flashes of potential but is still an unproven commodity. As a trade option, he could be a low-risk, high-reward acquisition for teams looking to bolster their pitching depth, particularly for playoff runs.
