Prieto was born in Cuba and began his professional baseball career in the Cuban National Series with the Elefantes de Cienfuegos.
His hitting caught the attention of the Baltimore Orioles, who signed him as an international free agent in 2022. After playing parts of four seasons in the minors, Prieto finally made his Major League debut last season with the Cardinals.
In three games with St. Louis, the left-handed hitter managed one hit but struck out five times in six trips to the plate.
Prieto looks to make more of an impact this time around. Considering how well he performed at Triple-A, the Cardinals figure they have nothing to lose by giving him another shot.
