[edit | edit source]

On July 31, 2018, Torres (alongside Conner Capel) was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals in exchange for Óscar Mercado.[3] He was assigned to the rookie-level Gulf Coast League Cardinals, with whom he finished the season. Over 44 games combined between the two affiliates, Torres slashed .321/.409/.525 with eight home runs and thirty RBI.[4]

In 2019, Torres began the season with the Peoria Chiefs of the Single-A Midwest League. However, after batting only .167 with eight RBI over 21 games,[5] he was reassigned to the Johnson City Cardinals of the rookie-level Appalachian League where he hit .286/.391/.527 with six home runs and 17 RBI over 33 games to end the year.[6] Torres did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] For the 2021 season, he returned to Peoria, now members of the High-A Central, and slashed .238/.302/.366 with six home runs, 32 RBI, and 25 doubles over 97 games.[8]

Torres returned to Peoria to begin the 2022 season, but opened the year on the injured list.[9][10] He ultimately made 32 appearances split between the rookie-level Florida Complex League Cardinals and Single-A Palm Beach Cardinals, batting a combined .229/.288/.358 with three home runs and 17 RBI. Torres was released by the Cardinals organization on September 20, 2022.[11]
