Who will be sent down?

Post by Shady »

When Arenado, Donovan and Scott are activated. Any chance for Saggese and Church to remain with the Cardinals?

Fermin is first down when an IF comes back. I believe Hampson is somehow still on this team? So yeah I can't believe they'd demote Church before DFAing him.

But I've been stunned many times in recent memory by this team's roster decisions.

Honestly don't think Burly will be the one DFAed?

Correct.
And with 28 spots the team could decide to carry 13 pitchers and 15 position players.
Or 14 and 14.

With STL out of any reasonable pathway to the 6th playoff spot, there is no reason for Hampson to stay on the roster.
It would be a gift to the player for STL to release him before September 1.

My guess is with tired arms on the pitching staff this time of year it will be 14/14.

Probably.
Very difficult to find PA's for 15 position players in the DH era.

September 1. I doubt both Saggesse and Church remain. My guess is Church gets sent down and a pitcher is called up.
