Cardinals News

The Cardinals finalized their Opening Day bullpen today, announcing Chris Roycroft, George Soriano, and the surprising choice of Matt Pushard as relievers, while Gordon Graceffo was optioned to Triple-A Memphis. This shuffling leaves St. Louis with a solid mix of arms, including JoJo Romero, Riley O’Brien, and Justin Bruihl. Meanwhile, the team will start the season without Lars Nootbaar, who lands on the 10-day injured list due to ongoing issues with his heels. On a brighter note, Alec Burleson is shaping up to be a key player, expected to be one of the most productive hitters after showcasing his skills defensively and offensively all spring. With the 2026 season creeping closer, every decision counts, and today was a definitive step toward a competitive roster.
