JJ should be brought up soon. He is ready to contribute at the show. Last night he got two hits off Chris Sale! and went 4 for 5 with 2 doubles and a walk. Made a couple outstanding plays at SS. No good reason to keep him in Memphis any longer, IMO.rockondlouie wrote: ↑24 Aug 2025 11:56 amRamFan08NY wrote: ↑24 Aug 2025 11:48 amNo benefit at all in bringing JJ up in August, or maybe even this season.rockondlouie wrote: ↑24 Aug 2025 10:50 am John Denton
@JohnDenton555
With Masyn Winn (knee soreness) scratched from today’s #STLCards starting lineup, Thomas Saggese slides over to shortstop and Jose Fermin starts at second base.
Sooooooooo glad we get to see Saggese & Fermin instead of, oh I don't know..................JJW!
First, he's 100% earned a callup.
Second, bringing him up so he can get his feet wet, meet his teammates, find a place to live and learn St. Louis, experience big league travel, the media, ect.....is a HUGE BENEFIT, gives him a jumpstart toward 2026.
From a J. Denton column:
Masyn Winn, a leading candidate to win the National League’s Gold Glove award at shortstop in 2025, was promoted from Triple-A Memphis to the Cardinals on Aug. 18, 2023, and he raved about how the experience helped him get better prepared for his full rookie season in 2024.
Teams all around MLB are bringing up their top prospects (re: Tampa & Pirates this week).
Scouty hates Winn.
