Cardinals Announce Several Roster Moves

By Steve Adams | July 5, 2023 at 11:12am CDT

The Cardinals announced Wednesday that they’ve placed right-hander Adam Wainwright and catcher Andrew Knizner on the injured list and optioned righty James Naile to Triple-A Memphis. Wainwright lands on the 15-day IL due to a shoulder strain — as manager Oli Marmol indicated last night — while Knizner heads to the 10-day IL after taking a foul ball to the groin in last night’s game. In a series of corresponding moves, St. Louis recalled catcher Ivan Herrera, righty Dakota Hudson and lefty Zack Thompson from Memphis.

Wainwright, 41, has had a disastrous start to the final season of an otherwise exceptional career. Through his first 11 starts, he’s been clobbered for a 7.66 ERA in 51 1/3 frames, with a career-worst 11% strikeout rate, a career-low 86.3 mph average fastball velocity, a career-high 1.74 HR/9 mark and a 7.5% walk rate that registers as his highest level since 2019.

Those struggles notwithstanding, Wainwright emphasized to reporters that he believes he’ll pitch again this season and that he has more left in the tank (link via Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch). However, after declaring his plan to return this season, Wainwright also candidly acknowledged that he simply isn’t healthy enough to pitch up to expectations right now.

“I’ve come back from much worse, much worse — but it is impacting my stuff,” Wainwright told the Cardinals beat (via Goold). “…There’s no denying it. Can’t hide it. I can talk myself into anything. I’ve done that a lot. I’ve made a career out of it. Right now, it’s not fair for me to put the team in that spot.”

Knizner, 28, was down for a spell after the unfortunately placed foul-tip last night but initially remained in the game. He eventually was pulled from the contest and transported to a local emergency room for further evaluation, He was eventually released last night, per Goold, and the team will likely provide an update with additional details on his status later today.

In 35 games and 115 plate appearances this year, Knizner has served as the primary backup to Willson Contreras. He’s shown some pop, already swatting a career-high five homers while turning in a career-best .191 ISO (slugging minus batting average). However, Knizner is hitting .227/.254/.418 on the whole, and he’s seen both his walk and strikeout rates (3.5% and 28.7%, respectively), careen in the wrong direction this year.

Herrera, 23, has more than earned a look in the big leagues, slashing .308/.432/.557 in 227 plate appearances at the Triple-A level. A well-regarded catching prospect, he was long expected to be Yadier Molina’s heir in St. Louis before the Cards bucked expectations and signed Contreras to a five-year contract this past offseason.

Hudson, 28, lost his rotation spot late last year and hasn’t won it back in 2023 despite considerable problems on the Cardinals’ starting staff. The sinker specialist has started 11 games in Memphis but is sitting on a 6.00 ERA through just 48 innings. His ground-ball rate is a strong 53.7%, and his 7.5% walk rate is also better than average, but Hudson’s 17.3% strikeout rate is below average. A .416 average on balls in play points to some rotten luck, but such issues are only magnified when a pitcher can’t miss bats at even an average level.

      The Cardinals also needed to send Jojo Romero to the minors or designate him for assignment. We traded Edmundo Sosa and that was another trade that we lost. At the trade deadline if we do sell which by now is very clear that is the direction we are going the Cards need to focus acquiring young relievers and possibly starting pitchers. I like the farm system of the Orioles maybe we can get a few players from them.

          Getting Murphy would have been great, but it seems that once they signed Contreras, their big deal of the off-season was done. They should’ve gone immediately for pitching. The SP was bad last year and has gotten even worse this season. It’s one thing where, the Dodgers, they felt they’re pitching staff was strong, then they’ve been decimated by injuries. They didn’t know they were going to lose so many arms. But the Cards knew as far back as last season they needed pitchers and a lot of them, yet they did nothing. Having Goldschmidt, Arenado and Contreras is good, but there’s only so much guys like that can outhit their pitching.

          Herrera was terrible when he was up last year. And also keep in mind all the minor league kids look great until they get to the majors. So in the tried and true Mozaliak way of not being able to replicate minor league success to major league success, Herrera will fail as well.

          He wasn’t terrible last year. What did he have, like 11 at-bats during a couple games? You don’t need to exaggerate and dump on players like that. Focus your energies totally on management cuz that’s where the problems start and it’s where the solutions need to begin.

      Oliver Marmol isn’t the problem

      Collusion is the problem… look at both the NL and AL central? These markets don’t matter anymore?

      As far as the Roster moves go…. Ivan Herrera is the only one who rightfully earned a call up? Zack Thompson has a ERA over 9 in 30 Memphis innings? Dakota Husdon has an ERA over 6…

      Sandy Alncantara and Zac Gallen must look like some strippers right now to John Mozeliak? Whos got a picture of this man in a dress? Or Bill DeWitt? He can afford Wilson Contreras but not a Cuban translator for Adolis Garcia and Randy Arozarena?

      All you Cardinals fans realize this is why the team is where they are?

      Collusion? Texas and Florida were more important than the Cardinals winning because they placing bets in Vegas?

      Duh why else are the A’s moving to SIN CITY?

      Houston Astrisks sign stealing scandal? Collusion between commissioner and owners to sweep a betting ring under the rug because placing bets on rigged outcomes is worth more than tickets sales, steaming, and TV CONTRACTS COMBINED!

      Anyone know about the collusion between Johnson and the Yankees from 1950-1960?

      Same. I thought Herrera should have had a more serious look in spring training. He only was given a couple games but in those games he showed he deserved a shot imo. I was also in the minority thinking the Cards should have gotten a short term stop gap catcher to wait for Herrera instead of Contreras, that way we could focus on pitching.

      Regardless, I have a big hopes for Herrera and am excited to see him play in an otherwise unexciting and abysmal season.

      I know most folks won’t like what I’m going to say (like the rest of my comments) but I don’t mind seeing Waino fail over and over. He came back for selfish reasons when he KNEW he’s basically done, and that decision alone is enough for me to stop liking him. He should have left with his buddies. He was going to be a Cardinal HOF with or without 200. I guess he’s hoping for the MLB HOF, which again is extremely selfish (with nothing left to offer) especially from a marginal player whose best attribute in his “twilight years” has been clowning around in the dugout/clubhouse. Just my opinion

        If you were that close to 200 wins, wouldn’t you want to have a chance to get it? Nobody, not even Wainwright, could have known how bad this season was going to be, but it’s not all him. Would the Cards be better if Wainwright didn’t play this year? Probably not with the way the Cards FO did nothing to improve their pitching. Waino will get his 200th this season and close his career on a personal high note.

        If he came back for a cheap price (very cheap) like Albert did, I could cut him some slack, especially if he were more realistic about his ability… of course I understand why 200 is so special these days, since the bar just keeps lowering for a bunch of athletes who are supposedly better than ever before (I don’t believe that) while they make more money than they ever have. Yes, I definitely think the Cards could have been a little better this season without him. I will be glad when he’s gone, and I won’t miss him at all.. I’ve already turned that page, just waiting for it to become reality.

          Athletes in every sport are better than ever. Knowledge and training continue to progress. Starting pitchers don’t get as many wins as they used to because teams have realized the best way to win is to bring in the 100-mph bullpen arms after about five innings. Pitchers get hurt so often because they are approaching the limit of what the human body can handle in terms of velocity and spin.

          95% of the time OBP & SLG is sufficient. A high BA is good if you need to get a runner in from third base, maybe a fast runner from second, late in the game.

    While many have seen this coming, amazingly the two people who can possibly do something about it — Mo and DeWallet — have not.

    Firing Marmol is certainly justifiable. I’m not really sure that gets to the core of the issues though. Poor decisions by ownership and the front office are. I can’t really see this getting better until Mo is gone. And Mo makes DeWallet a lot of money. I can’t see that happening.

    So the long decline will continue. Faster this season than previous ones, but the decline is here and real.

He is setting his sights higher than that, however. “The number I’m looking at is not 200, the number is 210,” Wainwright said, per Jones. Getting to 210 would allow Wainwright to tie Jesse Haines for second place on the all-time Cardinals list, behind only Bob Gibson’s 251. Wainwright also added that he would like to catch John Smoltz, who logged 213 career victories.”

    Some Oct. 2022 prescient comments.

    In all fairness, the Cardinals do a LOT of things right, which is why they’ve had so few losing seasons and been successful despite their market size and upper middle payroll. For that reason, it makes sense not to just clean house.

    I do think DeWitt needs to step in however and have a long talk with Mozeliak. Can Mo justify his moves in recent years? Aside from the salary dump acquisitions of Goldy and Arenado, can MO say he’s gotten fair value in almost ANY trade he’s made? Can he say he’s spent DeWitt’s money well when shopping on the free agent market, with the sole exception of their far eastern scouting recommendations (Mikolas, Oh, etc)? Can he justify firing Schildt and replacing him with Marmol, and a coaching staff that lacks any track record? Those are the questions I’d want to hear Mozeliak answer, and for the life of me, I can’t imagine what he can say in his defense.

      I always thought the Shildt firing was a knee-jerk reaction due to the fact that Oli was starting to get looked at by other teams for managing jobs, and they were afraid to lose him. Also, if Shildt was such a great manager, why has no one hired him as a manager yet?

        Why did they hire Marmol instead of Schumaker??

          Of I remember correctly, Schumacher was not available at the time but I can’t remember why.

    Montgomery, Flaherty, Hicks, and Stratton. Who else is gone by the deadline?

      O’Neill. One way or another. They need to clear the logjam. Probably Yepez, Gomez, and Knizner as well. No real path to playing time for any of them unless it’s Herrera instead of Kniz.

        I’m sure all the ones you mention will be gone before next year. I’m not so sure any of them will go by the deadline. The free agents need to be moved. Montgomery is worth more than a draft pick. I wouldn’t give any of the rest a qualifying offer so get what you can. It’s better than nothing.

        Trade O’Neill for a song just to get out from under all the medical bills.

    Well don’t expect any move. Losing 3 managers in 4 years is a slap in the face, nobody wants to manage here. You can speculate all you want the signs there every year we won’t make any moves
