Back to EpisodesCardinals Finalize Opening Day Roster, Bullpen Race Heats Up
Description
The St. Louis Cardinals have finalized their starting rotation for the 2026 season, with right-hander Richard Fitts optioned to Triple-A Memphis. Four pitchers, including Matt Pushard, Chris Roycroft, Gordon Graceffo, and George Soriano, are competing for the final spot in the bullpen. Scott Blewett, despite being reassigned to minor league camp, still has a chance to secure the position. Blewetts impressive spring performance and experience across multiple teams make him a valuable depth option. Soriano currently leads the race, but the decision is not yet final. The Cardinals depth in the bullpen will be crucial during their rebuild, and the bullpen picture is expected to clarify soon as they break camp on Sunday.
