  • Cardinals' Nolan Arenado: Willing to play first base

    Arenado is willing to play some first base in order to create roster flexibility for the team acquiring him in a potential trade, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    A large part of Arenado's value comes from his defense at third base, so it's not clear how many clubs would be looking to shift him to the other side of the diamond even on a part-time basis. Still, some flexibility can't hurt, and the fact he's even willing to entertain the possibility also seems to speak to Arenado's eagerness to waive his no-trade clause. Woo notes that a few teams have expressed interest in Arenado, but those talks "have yet to yield any substantive progress." However, negotiations are expected to pick up around the winter meetings and there is a "growing sense" in the industry that Arenado will be dealt.

  • Cardinals' Matt Svanson: Shielded from Rule 5 draft

    The Cardinals added Svanson to the 40-man roster Tuesday.

    A 25-year-old righty reliever who has not pitched above Double-A, Svanson logged a 2.69 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 59 strikeouts in 63.2 innings while notching 27 saves for Double-A Springfield. He will likely head to Triple-A Memphis to start the year, but should be an option to provide big-league bullpen depth throughout the summer.

  • Cardinals' Matt Koperniak: Contract selected

    The Cardinals selected Koperniak's contract from Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday.

    Koperniak is coming off a terrific season with Memphis, having slashed .309/.370/.512 with 20 home runs. He'll turn 27 in February and is more of a fourth outfielder type, but St. Louis felt obligated to keep him away from the Rule 5 Draft.

  • Cardinals' Tekoah Roby: Added to 40-man roster

    The Cardinals selected Roby's contract from Double-A Springfield on Tuesday.

    Roby was limited to just 38.1 frames in 2024 due to injury and posted a 6.57 ERA in his 10 starts. However, the 23-year-old has displayed terrific stuff when healthy and the Cardinals didn't want to risk losing him in the Rule 5 Draft.

  • Cardinals' Drew Rom: Outrighted to Triple-A

    Rom (shoulder) cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday.

    The Cardinals added some prospects to the 40-man roster as Rule 5 draft protection, so Rom was a roster casualty. He had arthroscopic shoulder surgery in May and did not pitch at all in 2024. If he's healthy this spring, he should provide rotation depth at Triple-A.

  • Cardinals' Tink Hence: Protected from Rule 5 Draft

    The Cardinals selected Hence's contract from Double-A Springfield on Tuesday.

    Hence has had trouble staying on the mound, having never reached 100 innings in a season. He was terrific over his 79.2 frames in 2024, however, collecting a 2.71 ERA and 109:26 K:BB with Springfield. Hence is now protected from the Rule 5 Draft.

  • Cardinals' Jose Barrero: Invited to Cardinals' camp

    Barrero signed a minor-league contract with the Cardinals on Saturday and received an invitation to spring training, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.

    Barrero owns just a .497 OPS across 447 plate appearances in his major-league career, and his offensive woes followed him to Triple-A last season, where he slashed .188/.277/.345 over 49 games. His chances of contributing for the Cardinals will remain low as long as he continues to struggle at the plate, though the 26-year-old may still see a healthy amount of playing time with Triple-A Memphis.

  • Cardinals' Ryan Helsley: Move to rotation not considered

    The Cardinals are not mulling a move to the rotation for Helsley, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    All 239 appearances for Helsley at the major-league level have come in relief, but he came up through the minors as a starting pitcher. While there has been some speculation the Cardinals might consider giving the 30-year-old another chance to start, it does not appear that is in the plans following Helsley's major-league-leading 49 saves in 2024. They will, however, reportedly entertain trade offers for Helsley, who is entering his final year of arbitration eligibility.
