3/03/25 | Cardinals Betrayed By Former All-Star Hurler After Surprise NL Central Rival Signing. The St. Louis Cardinals have passed on several reunion opportunities with former pitchers this winter as they prepare to provide more opportunities for youngsters in 2025. After declining beloved right-handed pitchers Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson's 2025 club options earlier this offseason, it became abundantly clear that the Cardinals weren't going to pursue rotation-bolstering opportunities. Consequently, a former St. Louis left-handed pitcher has reportedly signed a deal with a top National League Central rival in a shocking move by the division foe. "Free-agent pitcher Jose Quintana and the Milwaukee Brewers are in agreement on a one-year contract, according to sources familiar with the deal," FanSided's Robert Murray first reported Monday afternoon.

Kerry Miller of Bleacher Report thinks the Padres should take a chance on Lynn.

1/24/25 | Cardinals Face Problematic Rotation Logjam As Front Office Searches For Solutions. The St. Louis Cardinals significantly improved their rotation last offseason after finishing with a 71-91 record in 2023 but this year's direction for the pitching staff isn't so clear. After declining right-handed pitchers Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson's 2025 club options earlier this winter, it doesn't appear that the Cardinals will look to add another starter before Opening Day. With St. Louis embarking on an organizational reset, this upcoming season's rotation will look different and there's no telling how things will pan out. "For a team advertising a reset and opportunities for young pitchers, the Cardinals entered the winter with five incumbent starting pitchers and evidently not much desire to forcibly open up spots on the roster," Belleville News-Democrat's Jeff Jones wrote Friday.

1/13/25 | Braves Predicted To Temporarily Replace Spencer Strider With Ex-Cardinals All-Star.

For instance, 2011 World Series champion Lance Lynn had his club option for this upcoming season declined, leading some to believe he'll sign with the Los Angeles Angels. Another former Cardinals starting pitcher whose 2025 club option was declined could help the Atlanta Braves bounce back with a vengeance this year. "A mid-level workhorse like Kyle Gibson could be the perfect addition to help bridge the gap to Spencer Strider's eventual return from Tommy John surgery, especially if he can be had on a one-year deal," Bleacher Report's Joel Reuter wrote Monday when predicting Atlanta's 2025 rotation.

12/28/24 | Ex-Rangers All-Star Could Be $9 Million Sleeper Fit For Cardinals. The St. Louis Cardinals should add at least one more starting pitcher this offseason.

Pérez logged a 4.53 ERA across 26 starts with the Pittsburgh Pirates and San Diego Padres in 2024. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/cardinals/st-louis-cardinal... |
