Side Note: Winter League Rosters are not always 100% accurate so I scour the box scores in detail everyday just to make sure I get everyone. Jairo Perez was 1 guy that I missed...on the Cardenales roster, he is listed as a non-MLB player when we all know he is a NY Met farmhand. So what has he done so far? Well he's played in all 7 games so far and he is raking to the tune of a .321 AVG with 1 HR, 8 RBI, and a fabulous 10.3% K rate.
