The #STLCards have promoted four pitchers including two rebounders and released two position players who were unable to restart their careers in rookie ball. A reminder that The Cardinal Nation details every player move across the system all year long. ($) https://t.co/haTvXVxvOY pic.twitter.com/XHNAKFpyKJ

Also, Hurst already had his chance with St. Louis and was subsequently taken off the 40-man. He could earn his way back on, but it is more difficult. His results are not necessarily calling for it.
Memphis’ starters tonight are Jack Flaherty and Connor Thomas.
(Coincidentally, I discussed the possible late season Memphis promotions (plus AFL invites perhaps) on my podcast with Danny Mac yesterday.)
The 2nd place Springfield Cardinals are 4-2 on the week including a 4-game winning streak after previously losing 6 straight. On Wednesday, Chandler Redmond topped Matt Koperniak’s Tuesday cycle with a very rare home run cycle. @NicoleDanae10 reports. ($) https://t.co/FxKpFvJXkM pic.twitter.com/SVVqJ0pQ1I

Tonight may not be a cakewalk for the #STLCards. In his career, LH starter Jose Quintana has pitched in 33 MLB parks. His ERA of 5.97 in five starts at Coors Field is his seventh-worst mark at those 33 parks.

Marmol will do nothing.
The manager does not set the roster. The front office decides who is released, who is sent down and who is called up. The manager decides how to use the players he is provided in games.
Wednesday's #STLCards minors probables:
Mem vs Ind: LH Connor Thomas (5-5, 4.65)
Spr at Ama: RH Connor Lunn (3-6, 6.72)
Peo at GL: RHP Wilfredo Pereira (6-5, 4.46)

Springfield’s team ERA is 5.49, highest in the system by a lot. Not much going well except for Graceffo and McGreevy and even they are showing wear…
The two Luis Perdomos are cousins. The first one was lost to San Francisco in the 2008 Rule 5. The second went to the Padres in 2015. Both were in the Major League Phase. Neither was returned to the Cardinals.
(See Page 247-251 in The Cardinal Nation’s 2022 Prospect Guide for the organization’s Rule 5 history!)
