Ramón Urías

STL 3rd Baseman #29

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Ramón Urías hit a two-run homer and walked against his former team as the Cardinals topped the Orioles 7-5 on Thursday.

Urías just returned Sunday from missing 3 1/2 months with an elbow injury, so the homer off Trevor Rogers today was his first since Apr. 6. Masyn Winn’s injury has gotten Urías a little more playing time than expected this week, and he’ll be due even more if Blaze Jordan is forced to the IL after getting hurt today.
Gordon Graceffo

STL Relief Pitcher #44

Gordon Graceffo retired all nine batters he faced, striking out four of them, to start off the Cardinals’ bullpen game Thursday against the Orioles.

The Cardinals surely got more than they expected from Graceffo in his first start since being moved to the pen in Triple-A early last year. He hadn’t pitched more than 2 1/3 innings in any of his 52 appearances this year, but he needed just 38 pitches to get nine outs today. In spite of his success, he’ll probably head back to the pen and make an appearance against the Pirates this weekend.
Riley O'Brien

STL Relief Pitcher #61

Riley O’Brien bounced back from a pair of losses to protect a two-run lead in the ninth and earned his 34th save Thursday against the Orioles.

O’Brien gave up one run to take a loss in a tie game last night and six runs in a blown save/loss Sunday against the Phillies, but he had an easy time in an 11-pitch ninth today. He leads the National League and is third in the majors with his 34 saves. With O’Brien and George Soriano both having pitched back-to-back days, Ryne Stanek might be in line for a save chance on Friday.
Blaze Jordan

STL 1st Baseman #49

Blaze Jordan was removed from Thursday afternoon’s game against the Orioles due to an apparent ankle injury.

Jordan appeared to roll his ankle while stretching to make an awkward tag at third base. He needed to be helped off the field by Cardinals’ manager Oli Marmol and the training staff as he was unable to put weight on it. He’ll head for further evaluation and imaging to determine the extent of the injury. Nolan Gorman replaced him at third base and could be in line for increased action if Jordan is forced to miss any time.
Gordon Graceffo

STL Relief Pitcher #44

Gordon Graceffo will open for the Cardinals on Thursday.

It’ll be a bullpen game. Newly-called up Cade Winquest may have the best chance for a bulk role, but that’s not exactly an endorsement of chasing a win with him.
JJ Wetherholt

STL Shortstop #26

JJ Wetherholt is not in St. Louis’ starting lineup against the Orioles on Thursday.

He’ll get a rest day, with José Fermín shifting to shortstop and recently-activated Ramón Urías at second base against LHP Trevor Rogers.
Cade Winquest

STL Relief Pitcher #39

Cardinals selected the contract of RHP Cade Winquest from Triple-A Memphis

The 26-year-old was selected in the Rule 5 draft by the Yankees but returned to the Cardinals in April. This season, he has moved to the bullpen full time and has a 4.54 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and 57/14 K/BB ratio in 39 2/3 innings at Triple-A. He will make his MLB debut if/when he gets into a game.
Peter Strzelecki

STL Relief Pitcher #58

Cardinals placed RHP Peter Strzelecki on the 15-day injured list with right forearm extensor inflammation.

The right-hander has a 5.79 ERA in 14 innings out of the bullpen for the Cardinals this season. Coming into this season, he had a 3.44 ERA across 83 2/3 innings in the big leagues since 2022.
Michael McGreevy

STL Starting Pitcher #36

Michael McGreevy surrendered seven runs and 10 hits in five innings Wednesday against the Orioles.

McGreevy survived a five-run first and a two-run second to finish up with three solid innings and give the Cardinals a chance to get back into the game, which they did before eventually losing 8-7. It’s the first time in five starts this month that the Cardinals lost with McGreevy on the mound. He’ll take a season-high 3.86 ERA into next week’s start against the Dodgers.
Riley O'Brien

STL Relief Pitcher #61

Riley O’Brien lost in a second straight appearance Wednesday after giving up a run in the ninth against the Orioles.

This one wasn’t nearly as bad as Sunday’s six-run massacre, but it still hurts some. O’Brien gave up a leadoff single to Samuel Basallo on a grounder towards third that would have been handled if the infield hadn’t been shifted over and then a go-ahead double to Christian Encarnacion-Strand before retiring the next three batters to keep it a one-run game. The Cardinals, though, couldn’t pick him up. It’s O’Brien’s sixth loss to go along with five blown saves. Still, he was pitching so well in the month prior to Sunday’s outing that his closer’s role should be safe for now.
