The Cardinals selected left-handed pitcher Liam Doyle with the fifth overall pick in the 2025 MLB Draft. Doyle doesn't fit the mold of Cardinals draftees.
Liam Doyle is many things as a pitcher. He's electric. He's fiery. He has plus stuff. But he certainly doesn't feel like a typical St. Louis Cardinals draft pick.
That's a good thing.
For an organization that has drafted safely for so long, selecting Liam Doyle fifth overall represents that there's a changing of the guard going on behind the scenes.
