Cards News and Notes: MLB Draft happened and the Cards got some guys

The Cardinals drafted a few players last night. Some will good, some will be bad, but the important thing will be the lessons we learned along the way. Or something. The Cards start a three-game series against the Marlins tonight and the draft continues.

• Andy Schrag talked about a potential Manny Machado trade and the ripple effects it would have.
• A.E. Schafer went through a final draft preview in preparation for the draft that happened last night.
• Heather decided she wanted to look at all seven walk-off hits the Cards have had this year and frankly I think I could do that every day.
• If you’re interested in the draft previews Aaron has written all year, he gave a handy post showing where to find them.
• VEB had an open thread for some live reactions.
• The Cards got Norman Gorman, a guy born in 2000 who hits ball far.
• The Cards got Griffin Roberts, a pitcher who throws hard.
• The Cards got Luken Baker, a large adult son who hits the ball far.
