Unfortunately several pitchers stock is dropping - Hence, Matthews, McGreevy, Roby.
Davis and Hjerpe doesn't even register - unfortunate 1st round picks

Has been for years
As others have noted, Hence at #3 is nonsense.
As is NcGreevy at #10.
Also, who cares where someone ranks a prospect. People, including the Cardinals, need to worry less about prospect ranking/status and more about actual production.
Personally, I couldn’t care less how many prospects we can collect. What I'd really like? To have a good MLB team to root for again that's serious about competing!!
First time I saw Donovan in ST he was still a minor league player and was not a highly touted prospect.
Watched him play one full game,
I posted that he would beat every other STL prospect to MLB and would prove to be the best of the bunch.
I was right.
Rankings don't matter all that much.
