Lance Lynn is one of these young players. At least he was one of them. Lynn started off the season 10-1 with a 3.42 ERA, Since June 26th he has struggled compling a 6-11 record with a 4.690 ERA.
In past playoff runs the Cardinals have frequently used Lynn as a reliever. With his 2nd half struggles that may also be his postseason role for the 2013 Cardinals
2013 Topps
I don't get the complaints regarding Topps photography in recent sets. The landscape version of the design fits the Pitchers from behind the plate well - the righty batter in the larger open area of the frame helps balance the shot.
The hitter here also appears to be Andrew McCutchen, a star player who the Cardinals face frequently. This gives a little extra star power pop to the card.
