Wetherholt needs to be called up soon
To help rejuvenate the team and the fan base. Maybe after some adjustments are made to the roster at the trade deadline.

JJ has his bags packed. Not wondering IF he will be called up but WHEN
Several of his 1st round draft counterparts are contributing now. JJ will join them shortly.
Go Cards!

Wait to call him up until you know he isn’t going to lose his rookie status. He isn’t going to save the season and next season if he wins rookie of the year cards get a draft pick

Re: Wetherholt needs to be called up soon
It seems prudent to get Wetherholt some MLB experience at some point this season. To acclimate him to the MLB scene and give him something to build on in the off season to prepare for '26.

Re: Wetherholt needs to be called up soon
It would be incredibly stupid to call JJ up now. Why ruin his rookie status on a losing season let alone start his clock and take a roster spot now.
What part of this is NOT a season they will compete do people not understand?
Let him continue to bang on the door in AAA and call him up for a cup of coffee in September.

Re: Wetherholt needs to be called up soon
Which is why you call him up around September 1st and maintain his rookie eligibility.
