Luis Perdomo, RHP, San Diego – The one member of this Baker’s Dozen who didn’t appear in the majors with the Cardinals last season. He was the team's Futures Game rep at Cincinnati last summer when Alex Reyes was not available, and scouts at that game suggested that he was the best of the pitchers who appeared. The lithe, strong-armed righthander was left unprotected in the Rule 5 draft. It was a risk by the Cardinals: They didn’t think another major-league team would take a Low-A pitcher and stash him on their big-league roster all season. The Rockies took him early and traded his rights to the Padres, where he remains with a team that can afford to carry a young talent not yet ready for prime time. He’s 1-0 with a 10.50 ERA in six games and six innings pitched. Most of that ERA comes from a bruising early appearance against the Dodgers. He has allowed 13 hits and struck out five.
