Listen in the appWe went to Florida for Cardinals spring training and brought back plenty to talk about. We break down the messy outfield situation, Lars Nootbaar’s uncertain Opening Day status, Josh Baez’s monster spring (and potential for the big league club), and strong performances from Matthew Liberatore, Packy Naughton, and JJ Wetherholt. Then we continue our NL Central preview series with the Pirates and wrap with league news, including Team USA’s WBC outlook, Jesús Luzardo’s extension with the Phillies, and Hunter Greene’s upcoming elbow procedure.
