Cardinals To Sign Stephen Piscotty

The Cardinals‬ will sign supplementary first-round pick Stephen Piscotty to a contract within the hour, according to Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch (via Twitter).  The 36th overall pick will receive a $1.4MM bonus, right in line with the recommended value for that selection.

The Stanford product will report to the Cardinals' Quad Cities affiliate where he will be the starter at third base, Goold tweets.  Piscotty has shown the ability to hit for average but many scouting reports note that his power potential isn't on the same level.
