    Matthew Liberatore logged a quality start in a no-decision against the Angels on Tuesday night, allowing three runs on six hits across six innings.
    The 25-year-old southpaw struck out four on the evening and didn’t walk a batter. The only real trouble that he got into came in the third inning as the Angels strung together four straight two-out hits to push three runs across. He settled in nicely afterwards though and allowed just one baserunner over his final three frames. Liberatore got four swings and misses on 77 pitches on the night, posting an underwhelming CSW of 23 percent. He’s lined up for a pair of starts next week, taking on the Pirates in Pittsburgh on Monday and then a home tilt against the Phillies on Sunday afternoon.
  • STL Starting Pitcher #12
    Erick Fedde will start on Saturday against the Twins.
    Fedde and Andre Pallante will toe the rubber to close out a three-game series against the Twins before Miles Mikolas and Matthew Liberatore kick off another home series against the Angels early next week. It’ll be Opening Day starter Sonny Gray wrapping up that set.
  • STL Relief Pitcher #52
    Matthew Liberatore will be in the Cardinals’ starting rotation to open the season.
    Liberatore beat out Michael McGreevy with a 1.62 ERA, 0.78 WHIP and 9/4 K/BB ratio in 16 2/3 innings this spring. The 25-year-old left-hander owns a 4.99 career ERA in 91 appearances mostly out of the bullpen for St. Louis. Liberatore’s fantasy value is limited to NL-Only leagues to start the year.
  • STL Relief Pitcher #52
    Matthew Liberatore pitched four innings of one-run ball Saturday in a victory against the Marlins.
    Liberatore allowed two hits, walked two and struck out two. He closes out the spring with a 1.62 ERA in 16 2/3 innings, but it still seems like Michael McGreevy has overtaken him on the rotation depth chart. Liberatore probably will return to the bullpen, though the Cardinals do have the option of sending him down to Triple-A and allowing him to continue to start.
  • STL Relief Pitcher #52
    Matthew Liberatore threw three shutout innings to conclude Sunday’s loss to the Marlins.
    Liberatore has given up two runs in 12 2/3 innings as he tries to stay in the running for a rotation spot. Andre Pallante appears to be the vulnerable Cardinals starter at this point, but he helped his cause last time out. Liberatore figures to have a bullpen spot if he doesn’t make the rotation.
  • STL Relief Pitcher #52
    Matthew Liberatore pitched three hitless innings in relief Tuesday versus the Nationals.
    Liberatore followed Michael McGreevy’s three scoreless innings. Those two are probably the favorites for any openings that arise in the St. Louis rotation, whether it’s through injury or trade. Liberatore figures to stick as a reliever if he’s not in the rotation, while McGreevy would most likely head to Triple-A.
  • STL Relief Pitcher #52
    Matthew Liberatore is expecting to enter this spring as a starter after spending much of last season in the bullpen.
    Liberatore made six starts last season, the last of which came on July 24, and had a 6.35 ERA, compared to 3.69 in his 54 relief appearances. He’s no higher than sixth on the Cardinals’ SP depth chart at the moment, but injuries strike and there is some chance that Erick Fedde or Steven Matz will be traded.
  • STL Relief Pitcher #52
    Matthew Liberatore allowed five runs on four hits in three innings against the Pirates on Wednesday.
    The left-hander allowed two extra-base hits including a solo shot to Rowdy Tellez. Liberatore induced eight whiffs on 30 swings for a 27 percent whiff rate and 30 percent CSW. He doesn’t figure to remain in the rotation and should be off fantasy radars.
  • STL Relief Pitcher #52
    Matthew Liberatore will start on Wednesday against the Pirates.
    Liberatore will be making his first start since back in late June when he struck out eight over six shutout innings in a spot start against the Braves. The 24-year-old former top pitching prospect is unlikely to work more than a handful of innings to open the contest, which limits any sort of streaming appeal for fantasy purposes.
  • STL Relief Pitcher #52
    Matthew Liberatore tossed six shutout innings with eight strikeouts in a win over the Braves on Wednesday.
    Starting the second game of Wednesday’s doubleheader, Liberatore was dominant against the Braves, keeping them scoreless over a season-high six innings. He scattered two hits and a walk, striking out a career-high eight batters on 14 swinging strikes. The 24-year-old left-hander ends the day with a 3.86 ERA, 1.15 WHIP, and a 36/16 K/BB ratio across 44 1/3 innings. He’ll likely revert back to a swingman role if he hasn’t earned himself another start in the rotation.
