Tyler O'Neill - WBC play noticed by managerCardinals managers Oliver Marmol said O'Neill's strong play for Canada at the World Baseball Classic is a "reflection of the work he put in all offseason," John Denton of MLB.com r...
ImpactO'Neill was one of the best players in pool play, batting .615 (8-for-13) with two doubles, four RBI and five runs scored. The Cardinals have four players competing for three starting spots in the outfield, but Marmol's comments would suggest that O'Neill will get an everyday job out of the gate. Whether he plays in left field or center field remains to be seen -- he'll likely get time in both spots, especially since Lars Nootbaar and Dylan Carlson are also capable of playing in more than one outfield position.

Tommy Edman - Mentally prepared for seasonEdman thinks playing for South Korea at the World Baseball Classic helped his mental preparation for the regular season, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
ImpactSouth Korea didn't advance out of pool play, and Edman went just 2-for-11 with two RBI and a run scored while at the tournament. Nonetheless, it sounds like the veteran infielder has gained some benefit from competing on the international stage. Edman hit .265 with a .724 OPS, 13 home runs, 32 stolen bases, 57 RBI and 95 runs scored over 153 games last season. He can play a variety of positions for the Cardinals, but he's most likely to see time at shortstop and second base.
