Sierra started the 2017 season with the Palm Beach Cardinals of the Class A-Advanced Florida State League.

His first major league hit was a single in the sixth inning of his debut versus starting pitcher R.A. Dickey. After hitting safely in each of his seven games played (11-for-30), batting .367/.406/.367 .773 OPS with eight runs scored, the Cardinals optioned Sierra to the Springfield Cardinals of the Class AA Texas League. After his July 15 recall, he became the first Cardinals\' player to hit safely in all of his first nine games (July 16).\n', '
On December 14, 2017, the Cardinals traded Sierra, along with Sandy Alcántara, Zac Gallen, and Daniel Castano, to the Miami Marlins for Marcell Ozuna. MLB.com ranked Sierra as Miami\'s seventh best prospect going into the 2018 season. \n', '
