Wow

I guess that McGreevy is on the outside looking in....for Liberatore



Matz will probably be the 6 starter come April 16th.

Sorry Crav. Just posted something similar in another post. My question? Who is the backup SS. Are they looking outside the organization for that.

LHP Matthew Liberatore will start the season in a modified six-man rotation, manager Oli Marmol said. LHP Steven Matz will start out of the bullpen and join the rotation on April 16, Marmol said.

yep, McGreevy out...unless I'm missing something?

SIani makes the roster....most asinine thing I've ever seen....

They got one right (VSII) but then can't help but screw up (AGAIN!) putting Libby in the SR instead of MCG!

And Siani on the team?

So, they're keeping Scott AND Siani. What, no Baker?

RHPs Kyle Leahy and Chris Roycroft are on the #STLCards Opening Day roster, per Oli Marmol.

CFs Michael Siani and Victor Scott II are both on the roster, while utility fielders Jose Fermin and Jose Barrero will start at Triple-A Memphis, Marmol said.

Donovan is your only back up choice.

Oli and Mo really love them some Siani....enough that they'll sabotage their own roster.

Ok, the Fermin story was bull@#$%. Donny is the utility.

The Cardinals will use Siani as a 4th OF/defensive replacement. They do not have a back up SS, Oli Marmol acknowledged. Donovan can fill in when needed.

Six-man rotation starts on 4/16 because of scheduling/off days. The Cardinals plan to keep Libby in the rotation regardless.

RHP Michael McGreevy will start the season at Triple-A despite pitching extremely well in Spring Training. Manager Oli Marmol said sending McGreevy to Triple A provides a layer of injury protection for the starting staff in St. Louis.

Matthew Liberatore opens season in rotation.

Steven Matz will be in bullpen, and then used later as a sixth starter when schedule demands.

Michael McGreevy will begin year in Memphis.

Probably Donny at this point.

Baker made it too.

Donny would be backup, and Barrero or Saggese would be replacement if Winn missed time.
