Cardinals Add Undrafted Aussie Catcher | St. Louis News

The St. Louis Cardinals are quietly building catching depth by signing undrafted Australian catcher John Lemm, a 6’3”, 230-pound power hitter who smashed 29 homers in college. With a low-risk, high-reward move, Lemm joins a loaded catching pipeline that includes prospects like Rainiel Rodriguez and Leo Bernal, plus newly drafted Jayden Lobliner. Under Chaim Bloom’s revamped player development system, Lemm’s potential is being carefully nurtured — and if he doesn’t pan out, the Cardinals barely break a sweat. It’s a smart, savvy play that proves talent isn’t always found in the draft. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
