Beloved Ex-Cardinals Hurler Linked To Short-Term Deal With Orioles, Per Insider

The St. Louis Cardinals retooled the pitching staff last offseason after a tumultuous 91-loss campaign in 2023 but they'll likely have to return to the drawing boards again this winter. All three starting pitchers acquired last offseason could play for other teams in 2025, with ace Sonny Gray being a potentially significant trade candidate for the Cardinals. Despite reuniting with a fan favorite last winter, St. Louis has declined his club option for next season, opening the door for the beloved veteran to join the Baltimore Orioles.
