It’s my turn to play future-teller! What follows are my picks for a St. Louis Cardinals Opening Day roster.

I attempted to do this back at the beginning of the month and, admittedly, I already have a change or two to make. There won’t be any major changes to my list of 25 guys, but I do think that the St. Louis Cardinals will do things a tad differently.

A lot could change quickly with this team as health prognosis’ become clearer. However, assuming perfect health, I think that there are 22-23 “locks” already to make the club with a couple of spots that could still be won.

As you will find, my starting nine may be a bit different than what most might expect. Thats what makes this fun! Don’t worry, you all will have plenty of outlets available to tell me why I’m wrong.

That’s enough stalling, let’s get this thing going! We will start with Cardinal backstops.
