Leonardo Abdiel Bernal (born February 13, 2004) is a Panamanian professional baseball catcher who made his Major League Baseball debut with the St. Louis Cardinals in 2026. He signed with the Cardinals as an international free agent in January 2021 for a $680,000 signing bonus and spent his early years developing through their minor league system. After strong campaigns at High-A Peoria, Double-A Springfield, and Triple-A Memphis—including a standout 2025 season where he hit .247/.332/.394 with 13 home runs, 70 RBI, and 13 stolen bases—he was added to the 40-man roster on November 18, 2025, to protect him from the Rule 5 draft. In 2026, he posted a .278 batting average with 16 home runs and 77 RBI in 101 games at Triple-A, earning a promotion to the majors on September 1, 2026. Known for his blend of power, contact, and speed behind the plate, Bernal represents an intriguing prospect for the Cardinals' future.
