The St. Louis Cardinals finished the 2024 season above .500 but missed the playoffs, showcasing some promising talent, particularly catcher Iván Herrera.
In 72 games, Herrera posted impressive offensive numbers, slashing .301/.372/.428 with five home runs and 27 RBIs. His performance raises questions about the team's catcher situation, especially with Willson Contreras' injury history.
Speculation surrounds the potential for a trade involving Herrera, as he offers team control until 2030 and could be a valuable asset in a deal.
