Ryan Mitchell Works to Build Strength After Debut Season Grind

St. Louis Cardinals 19-year-old outfield prospect Ryan Mitchell finished his Low-A debut season in the Florida State League with a wRC+ over 100 across 100+ plate appearances. Mitchell showed promise early before second-half fatigue caused his average exit velocity to decline from 87.2 mph down to 81.9 mph. Adding muscle ahead of spring training will be key to unlocking consistent power from his solid frame.
