Starting pitching depth has long been touted as the strength of the St. Louis Cardinals. They entered spring with a group of 10 theoretical starting pitching candidates. While the quantity thinned out as Carlos Martinez had setbacks and Alex Reyes faced a slow build back to a starter’s workload, it was fair to be concerned [...]
