What happened: The St. Louis Cardinals selected outfielder Trevor Condon with the 13th overall pick in the 2026 MLB Draft. Condon becomes the club's first selection of this year's draft class.

Why it matters: The pick adds a bat to St. Louis's outfield pipeline, a player whom Mark DeRosa said has a motor that rivals PCA. The selection comes the same week the Cardinals locked up rookie JJ Wetherholt to a long-term extension, part of a broader push to build around young talent.

What to watch: Condon now moves into contract talks with the Cardinals ahead of the draft's signing deadline.
