Ivan Herrera Returns Home to Futures Game | St. Louis Cardinals News

Cardinals’ top prospect Ivan Herrera, a 21-year-old catcher and one of baseball’s brightest young hitters, is headed home to Atlanta for the Futures Game on July 17 — and he’s got big things ahead. After switching from infielder to catcher and splitting time between Triple-A Memphis and Double-A Springfield this season, Herrera’s elite bat and big-league experience (8 games with St. Louis last year) make him a standout. He’s joined by college teammate Joshua Baez and pitcher Cooper Hjerpe — all rising stars getting national recognition. This is more than just an All-Star nod; it’s proof the Cardinals’ farm system is loaded with talent ready to explode.
