With all of the speculation about the trade deadline going on across Major League Baseball, it seems many have forgotten that the 2025 MLB Draft will come beforehand. The action will kick off on July 13th and that’s going to be the next opportunity for the St. Louis Cardinals to add another future star to the franchise. Not all picks work out, obviously, but the Cardinals will have a chance at landing high-end talent with the No. 5 overall pick in the draft. Last year, the Cardinals used the No. 7 pick to take JJ Wetherholt and it has worked out to the poiint where he was just promoted to Triple-A already.
