The Memphis Redbirds' rotation now consists of: Quinn Mathews, Hunter Dobbins, Jurrangelo Cjintje, Brycen Mautz, Mason Molina, and Pete Hansen. That's kind of wild! I used to pray for days like this #STLCards Oh by the way, Ixan Henderson is coming back and Richard Fitts and Tekoah Roby will be healthy next season.

Cardinals prospect’s unbelievable childhood prediction became reality (via @MrPlaztastic17) redbirdrants.com/cardinals-pros…

#STLCards - LHP Bruce Zimmermann has elected free agency after clearing waivers. Clearing waivers surprised me, him choosing the free agency route rather than returning to Memphis, not so much.

SHP Jurrangelo Cijntje & INF Brody Moore have been transferred from Springfield (AA) to Memphis (AAA). OF Chase Davis (AA) has been activated from the 7-day IL and transferred to Memphis. RHP Brandt Thompson has been transferred from Memphis to Springfield. C Rainiel Rodriguez & LHP Liam Doyle (AA) have been reinstated from the Temporarily Inactive List. OF Zach Levenson (AA) has been reinstated from the Development List. INF Trey Paige (AA) has been placed on the Development List. RHPs Dylan Driessen & Jack Martinez have been transferred from Palm Beach (A) to Peoria (A+). LHP Bruce Zimmermann (AAA) has elected free agency. OF Matt Koperniak (AAA), INF Jeremy Rivas (AAA) & RHP Jason Savacool (A+) have been given their unconditional release.

The St. Louis Cardinals are promoting Chase Davis to the Memphis Redbirds (AAA). Was the No. 21 pick of the 2023 MLB Draft.

2026 Signing Bonus update as of 6:43 AM on July 15th. Both Kollin Ritchie and Clayton Freshcorn announced their return to college baseball, and the Cardinals added 3 UDFA to their class. Signing bonuses usually start rolling in around Wednesday-Friday of post-draft week, so we will likely get another update or two to this sheet today. Also added a Slot Value +/- column to show if the deal is an overslot or underslot quickly.

Special Edition: Hitter of the Day 🏆 Jordan Walker The Cardinals slugger put on a show to win the Home Run Derby, reminding everyone why his raw power is among the best in baseball. Congratulations to the 2026 Home Run Derby Champion! 💣

GOODNIGHT PHILADELPHIA

LETS GOOOOOO

COME ON ALEX!!!!

It’s Bloom or Bust. I’ve had real concerns about how the #STLCards have managed the 40-man roster, but credit where it’s due: Chaim Bloom and the front office absolutely knocked this draft out of the park.
