The St. Louis Cardinals signed Dustin May with the intention of upping his value and trading him at the deadline, and it worked to perfection. This now makes the Cardinals a destination for pitchers and they can repeat this method again.
The St. Louis Cardinals' signing of Everson Pereira should remind fans that outfield prospect Joshua Báez could embark on a very similar career to Pereira and that they must temper their expectations.
The St. Louis Cardinals are either going to release or designate Nelson Velazquez for assignment to make room for waiver claim Everson Pereira on their roster, according to a report from Jeff Jones. Velazquez was fine in his role but time for change.
The Colorado Rockies kicked off a nine-game road trip tonight with the first of a three-game set against the St. Louis Cardinals. In the first matchup of the series, the Rockies and Cardinals found themselves in a one-run battle for most of the game. While the Rockies out-hit the Cardinals by a wide margin and […]
Kyle Leahy has slowly established himself this season as one of the more reliable St. Louis Cardinals starters in this development year. He turned into something of a strikeout machine Friday night, but also gave up a ton of leadoff hits. How would that affect the end result? The answer is Leahy’s strikeouts and a […]
Sometimes you’re the broom, sometimes you’re in the dustpan. After sweeping the Kansas City Royals in a three-game series, the Colorado Rockies found themselves on the other end, dropping three straight to the Tampa Bay Rays. The Rockies enjoyed a nice Thursday off after the homestand and will try to turn their fortunes around under […]
The Cardinals plucked Everson Pereira off waivers from the White Sox, and though he hasn't lived up to his top-prospect billing yet, St. Louis could prove the perfect place for him to emerge as a fourth outfielder.
The St. Louis Cardinals recently saw Tink Hence pass through waivers, their former top pitching prospect. While they used to have so many eggs in the Hence basket, they now have a deep pitching pipeline to rely on.
12 of the St. Louis Cardinals' top 30 prospects are currently on the Springfield Cardinals roster, creating an optimistic view of the future. Names like Rainiel Rodriguez, Liam Doyle, Tai Peete, Josiah Ragsdale, and more should excite fans.
Losing three out of five to the Cardinals and Yankees wasn’t a great look for the Cubs, especially when they scored only three runs in the losses. But, boy, have they looked better since Jed Hoyer proved his commitment to the season with a trade deadline haul that many are saying was the best in … The post Quantifying Hope: Hot Stretch Pushes Cubs’ Odds Near Body Temp appeared first on .
Welcome back to the third and final part of my analysis of the St. Louis Cardinals’ 2026 MLB Draft! Over the course of the past few weeks, I’ve covered the Cardinals’ Day 1 draft picks, along with a deep dive into their early Day 2 selections. Today, I’ll be covering the team’s selections in rounds […] The post Breaking Down the Cardinals’ Late-Round Draft Choices appeared first on Just Baseball .
The Yankees looked to leverage their emotional 2-0 win from...
While the Yankees didn’t as much as a lot of people hoped at the trade deadline, they still made a couple moves, and also called up top prospect George Lombard Jr. That being said, they still haven’t looked that different early on. The Yankees dropped two of three in their series against the Cardinals. The […]
The 2026 Trade Deadline produced some new talent for the St. Louis Cardinals organization, leveraging expiring contracts into (potential) future assets. As much as we don’t like to see favorite players depart (a lot like geting rid of those old shoes we love), smart organizations do this every year. This churn, or perhaps more euphemistically […]
Former St. Louis Cardinals starter, Miles Mikolas, did something in his last game that only Shohei Ohtani can relate to. As he stepped into the batter's box, jaws dropped, and dreams were made.
The Cardinals announced that right-hander Tink Hence has cleared waivers and been sent outright to their Florida Complex League affiliate. He was designated for assignment last week when the club called up left-hander Quinn Mathews. Hence is celebrating his 24th birthday today. He was once one of the most notable prospects in the league. The […]
Everson Pereira was claimed off waivers by the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday, after he was designated for assignment earlier this week to make room for Brenton Doyle on the active roster. Pereira was designated for assignment after hitting .225/.284/.438, but in only 27 games as he's been slowed by a litany of injuries. It's good thematic timing that Pereira gets claimed right as the White Sox face a left-handed starting pitcher in Ranger Suarez, laying bare the path they chose instead. ...
Box Score The Milwaukee Brewers have found their fourth starter. Dustin May, who was recently acquired in a trade with the St. Louis Cardinals, made his Brewers debut this afternoon and delivered a gritty six-inning performance, allowing just two runs on three hits while striking out five. While riding high on the May train, the […]
While the Milwaukee Brewers made a push for Tarik Skubal at the trade deadline, they lost out to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Instead, they managed to land Dustin May in a deal with the St. Louis Cardinals. Looking at both of their first starts on their new respective teams, you wouldn’t know the difference. Skubal […] The post Brewers starter Dustin May’s first start draws trade deadline Tarik Skubal comparisons appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The Cardinals announced that they have claimed outfielder Everson Pereira off waivers from the White Sox. Chicago designated him for assignment on deadline day when they picked up Joey Bart from Atlanta. The Cards had a couple of 40-man vacancies and don’t need to make a corresponding move in that regard. Pereira is out of […]
The St. Louis Cardinals return to Busch Stadium Friday night for the start of a 3-game series versus the NL West cellar-dwelling Colorado Rockies. It should (key word) be an opportunity for the Cardinals to relearn their winning ways while enjoying some home cooking, but we all know how best laid plans go this season. […]
Here's how every MLB team's home attendance numbers stack up in 2026 — and what it means for the Cardinals, Blue Jays, Rockies and Pirates specifically.
With the Milwaukee Brewers adding pitching before the trade deadline last Monday, besides adding arms to the bullpen, the team also brought in Dustin May from the St. Louis Cardinals. As the Brewers add May to the starting rotation, he is set to make his debut with the team against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Fans will […] The post Dustin May to make Brewers debut after Cardinals trade appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The New York Yankees have been trying to tread water amid the extended injury absence of Aaron Judge. New York currently sits at 64-51 on the 2026 season after a recent home loss to the St. Louis Cardinals.
