Ten prospects. Two minutes each. Start the clock. St. Louis Post-Dispatch baseball writer Daniel Guerrero, one of the few staff writers at a daily paper dedicated to covering minor-league affiliates of the city's major-league team, joins the Best Podcast in Baseball to discuss 10 prospects who are set to have a leap year in 2024. Building off of Guerrero's article in the Feb. 29, 2024, edition of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Guerrero adds to the four players mentioned in the article with others who will leap in sample size, leap to the majors, leap to contribute, or leap into the conversation surrounding the team. Some of the prospects discussed include Won-Bin Cho, Ian Bedell, Pedro Pages, Chase Davis, Josh Baez, Thomas Saggese, Victor Scott II, and Edwin Nunez. One or two might even leap into prominent role with the major-league club. BPIB host and Post-Dispatch baseball writer Derrick Goold keeps the clock running and adds some addition background on each prospects and then, when time expires, runs a 2-minute drill on the prospect mostly likely to leap into being a factor for the big-league Cardinals by the end of 2024. Could a familiar history be about to repeat itself? The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.
