He's a goner and the players know it. They pulled him early for the upcoming trade.

Nothing like playing your cards close to the vest.

I’m guessing it was a big deal to end his night on a high point.

“Dustin May is through five shutout on 70 pitches and Justin Bruihl is warming in the Cardinals bullpen. I asked Marmol this afternoon if there would be limits on his usage and the answer was "he's our starting pitcher."

Here's the real answer”

If there was a deal even remotely close to being finalized, he would not have pitched at all tonight.

Players (including pitchers) are removed from games due to trades. Strange to remove him after 5 innings with literally no problems.

I will love the day when the St. Louis Cardinals have one goal……to WIN MLB games
For many years now it’s always been some other agenda.
Legacy Tours
Contracts Must Play
Finding Out If Youths Can Play
Showcasing Talent For Other Teams

Let me know if we ever get back to playing for Pennants and World Series.

I suspect there were negotiations ongoing and a phone call accepted Blooms demand. Pull him. Hey, he served his purpose if they get a decent prospect back. And pitched well while here. Win win.

Myself, I would not trade him. When your trying to improve your starting pitching staff, you don't trade one of your better pitchers just because you don't want to have to pay more $$$$ to have him play next year for the Cardinals. Resign him in the offseason. It better be a great haul
for Dustin which based on Bloom's trades so far I have not been blown away from so far.
