Liam Doyle's professional career since being drafted has been brief. The St. Louis Cardinals' fifth overall pick in the 2025 draft, a spot they won via the draft lottery despite finishing with a record above .500, has made only one appearance since the MLB Draft.

In his one start for Low-A Palm Beach, Doyle threw 1.2 innings. He struck out three, walked two, and allowed one hit, a solo home run.

Doyle's collegiate profile paired with his draft status propelled the Cardinals to promote him to Double-A Springfield in early September. The Class A season was over at that point, so promoting Doyle was an easy choice for the organization.
