Jon Heyman reported that the Cardinals are interested in free agent INF/OF Miguel Andujar, who excels against left-handed pitching, boasting a .986 OPS last season. Manager Oli Marmol seeks a right-handed hitter to balance a lefty-heavy lineup, where only Ivan Herrera and Nolan Gorman had a wRC+ above 100 against LHP. While Andujar’s defense is limited, his strong arm could help in the outfield. Fangraphs estimates a one-year, $5.5 million contract, but the Cardinals may need to enhance their offer to secure him.
