Sawyer

Sawyer compiled a lackluster 5.81 ERA, 1.60 WHIP and 61/23 K/BB ratio across 52 2/3 innings (44 appearances) between Double-A Springfield and Triple-A Memphis. The 30-year-old journeyman right-hander has yet to reach the majors and is merely organizational pitching depth at this point in his career.

Sawyer reeled off an absurd 30 consecutive scoreless relief appearances this past season for the Evansville Otters of the independent Frontier League. The 29-year-old right-hander, who allowed just 11 hits and finished with a 39/3 K/BB ratio across 30 innings, will get a shot with the Cardinals next year. He was drafted by the Rockies back in 2014 and hasn’t appeared in the minors since the 2016 season.
