Cardinals front office this week went shopping for an International Free Agent (IFA). Who they found was a young fire-baller from the Dominican Republic. Julian Ortiz has the ability to develop into a good long relief pitcher or at least a situational guy out of the bullpen. If Ortiz can fully develop, and there is some question about his dedication, he should have three ML pitches and an equal ability to get batters out from either side. He does have a lack of focus at times, which leads to his giving up the long ball, but with his stuff, he is just wild enough to be effective. Can't wait for this kid to make his debut.
