Santana Soars to Triple-A | St. Louis Cardinals News

Sandro Santana, the 21-year-old lefty acquired in the Lars Nootbaar trade, is rocketing up the Cardinals’ pipeline—jumping straight to Triple-A Memphis to test his stuff against top-tier hitters. Already a dominant force in Arizona’s system with elite velocity (95-96 mph) and a nasty slider, Santana has dazzled since joining St. Louis, striking out 60% of batters faced while allowing just one run in over eight innings. With four weeks to prove himself at the highest minor league level, he’s on track for a big league camp invite next spring—and could be ready for the majors by 2027.
