12/21/24 Cardinals' Erick Fedde, Steven Matz Drawing Trade Interest From Tigers, Guardians. The St. Louis Cardinals, who have made it clear they intend to reset and rebuild in 2025, currently boast one of the oldest starting rotations in baseball – and that's not even counting 37-year-old departing free agents Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson. Miles Mikolas is 36 years old, while Sonny Gray in 35. Steven Matz and Erick Fedde are technically younger, but they are entering their age-34 and age-32 seasons, respectively. Top prospect Michael McGreevy made his MLB in 2024, though, and Tink Hence and Quinn Mathews could follow in his footsteps in 2025.

12/16/24 Yankees Urged To Avoid Blockbuster Signing For Ex-Cardinals $130 Million All-Star. The St. Louis Cardinals are committed to shedding payroll this offseason, which has resulted in several former fan favorites being moved on from. For instance, right-handed pitcher Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson's 2025 club options were declined, forcing both veteran hurlers to explore the free-agent market. Another former beloved St. Louis veteran is searching the market for his next landing spot after his contract expired this season but one of his likely desired destinations might not be open to reeling him in. "The upside to the (New York) Yankees signing (Paul) Goldschmidt is that he can likely be had for a one-year deal," FanSided's Rucker Haringey wrote on Dec. 10 when outlining free agents the Yankees should avoid.

12/12/24 MLB rumors: Lance Lynn dishes on being a target of Athletics surprise free agency spending. Free agency is regularly dominated by teams like the New York Mets, Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees. The Boston Red Sox and Texas Rangers also can be key players, and teams like the San Diego Padres and Seattle Mariners would not be surprises if they get involved in bidding for key players.

11/27/24 Ex-Cardinals Four-Time Gold Glover Announces Retirement Ending 14-Year Career. The St. Louis Cardinals' objective last offseason was to load the big-league roster with veterans who could not only win but would help develop the club's youth core. Sadly, the additions of veterans such as right-handed pitchers Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson weren't enough to propel the Cardinals back to the playoff. Another impactful veteran acquired last winter has decided to officially walk away from the game, announcing his retirement in a deeply felt Instagram post. "And to the Cardinals, thank you for giving me the opportunity to continue my career for one more season," two-time World Series champion Brandon Crawford wrote Wednesday evening.

11/20/24 Cardinals Four-Time Gold Glover Predicted To Cut Ties To Sign With Pirates. The St. Louis Cardinals could part ways with several fan favorites this offseason as the front office looks for ways to trim payroll and open roster room for youngsters. Lance Lynn, Kyle Gibson and Keynan Middleton are off the books for 2025 after the three veteran hurlers' club options were declined, making them free agents. Another notable name who is no longer on the Cardinals payroll could be a frequent visitor to Busch Stadium next season if the following transaction takes place. "The Cardinals might not want (Paul) Goldschmidt to end up in Arizona (Diamondbacks) but at least he'd be out of the National League Central with limited attempts of doing damage against his former club," FanSided's Zachary Rotman wrote on Nov. 12 when discussing potential landing destinations for the St. Louis first baseman.

11/11/24 Cardinals Urged To Avoid Cutting Ties With Superstar With Dodgers. It seems like there are some trades coming in the St. Louis Cardinals' future that fans may not end up being too happy about. The Cardinals already have started making some changes to the organization by turning down Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson's club option for the 2025 season. St. Louis surely will part ways with other players in the organization with star third baseman Nolan Arenado seemingly like a possible option. Rumors have started to pick up about his future with the organization and some have wondered if the Los Angeles Dodgers will end up calling about Arenado.

11/10/24 Cardinals Seen As Front-Runners To Land Eight-Time All-Star Hurler, Per Insider. The St. Louis Cardinals are cutting costs this winter but that doesn't mean the front office won't look to make necessary additions to the big-league roster. Acquiring another starting pitcher is likely necessary for the Cardinals after Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson's 2025 club options were recently declined. Fortunately, a future Hall of Fame candidate is looking to add one more season to his illustrious career and the Cardinals are considered a potential landing spot. "Did the Red Birds decline their club options on 37-year-olds Kyle Gibson and Lance Lynn just to sign a 40-year-old (Max Scherzer) to a slightly higher salary?" Bleacher Report's Kerry Miller wrote Sunday when discussing where Scherzer could sign this offseason.

11/09/24 Ex-Cardinals All-Star Reportedly Could Reunite With St. Louis For Economical Price. The St. Louis Cardinals will cut costs this offseason but several holes in the roster still need to be addressed via free agency or the trade market. Following the recent decisions to turn down Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson's 2025 club options, the Cardinals must find at least one more starting pitcher to supplant the veteran hurlers in the rotation. Young pitchers such as Michael McGreevy and Andre Pallante will have an increased workload in 2025. Perhaps the Cardinals should add another proven arm to complement Sonny Gray on the frontline of the pitching staff -- if he isn't traded.

11/05/24 Cardinals Surprisingly Seen As Front-Runners To Land Cy Young Hurler This Winter. The St. Louis Cardinals aren't expected to sign many free agents this winter but that doesn't mean they won't look to make appropriate additions when opportunities arise. After declining starting pitchers Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson's 2025 club options, the Cardinals have holes to fill in the rotation. Although doubtful, perhaps St. Louis will make a bid for a future Hall of Fame hurler looking to give it a shot for at least one more season in his illustrious career. Texas Rangers right-handed pitcher Max Scherzer has been linked to the Cardinals as a top landing spot for the marquee starter, according to CBS Sports' R.J. Anderson's article on where this offseason's top free agents might sign.

11/04/24 Cardinals $80 Million Star Reportedly Could Be Pursued By Mets This Offseason. The St. Louis Cardinals significantly improved their pitching staff last offseason but could see key pitchers from their arsenal dealt this winter. After recently declining Lance Lynn, Kyle Gibson and Keynan Middelton's club options for 2025, the Cardinals are expected to seek the trade market as the front office looks to reduce payroll. Consequently, one of St. Louis' top relievers will likely be placed on the trade block and a National League East rival has been mentioned as a potential suitor. "They (New York Mets) could be involved in talks with the (Milwaukee) Brewers for Devin Williams or with the Cardinals for Ryan Helsley," ESPN's Buster Olney wrote Monday when discussing the Mets' offseason agenda.

11/03/24 MLB’s offseason begins Monday. What three Cardinals are most likely to be traded?. St. Louis will almost certainly allow Lance Lynn, Keynan Middleton and Kyle Gibson to become free agents, too.

10/30/24 Cardinals Should Explore Reunion With Missouri Native Turned International Star. The St. Louis Cardinals improved their pitching staff last offseason but the additions weren't enough to prevent the restructuring that's coming this winter. The rotation received the most significant upgrades with Lance Lynn, Kyle Gibson and ace Sonny Gray. With Lynn and Gibson having club options that likely won't be picked up and Gray being on the trade block, St. Louis might need to look for affordable starters this winter. Luckily, a former Cardinals hurler might be a low-cost, high-reward option.

10/17/24 Cardinals expected to decline option for $11 million starting pitcher. The St. Louis Cardinals are likely going to have a much lower payroll in 2025 after missing the playoffs this year. In order to do that, they can start by declining options for two aging starting pitchers. Tim Kelly of Bleacher Report predicts that they will not pick up Lance Lynn's option for 2025. "The Cardinals are looking to trim payroll in 2025, so it stands to reason they will take the $1 million buyout on his option, rather than paying him $11 million to return," Kelly wrote.

10/17/24 Cardinals Predicted To Move On From $11 Million All-Star Soon. The St. Louis Cardinals will have to start making decisions shortly after the 2024 Major League Baseball postseason ends. One notable option St. Louis will have to make a decision about is starting pitcher Lance Lynn. Lynn is a 13-year big league veteran who spent the first six seasons of his career in St. Louis. St. Louis needs to make a decision now about an $11 million club option for the 2025 campaign.

10/15/24 Beloved Cardinals Champion Projected To Get $8.5 Million If Available. The St. Louis Cardinals could end up losing some veterans this winter. St. Louis has some decisions to make, and two of the first that the team will have to make are about the future of veteran pitchers Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson. Both were signed by the Cardinals last offseason and did exactly what the team hoped they would. The Cardinals have club options for both this winter for the 2025 campaign.

10/15/24 Cardinals Urged To Pursue Red Sox Projected $27 Million Hurler. The St. Louis Cardinals may not make a massive investment this winter in the team, but that doesn't mean that the team isn't going to add anyone. St. Louis wants to cut payroll and can do so by parting ways with some of the team's current veterans, like Lance Lynn or Kyle Gibson. There even has been rumors that the team could look to make trades with high-priced veterans like Nolan Arenaado or Ryan Helsley. The Cardinals are looking to reload the organization, but that doesn't mean they can't surprise us in 2025.

10/12/24 Cardinals $75 Million Star Called Trade Option Again, Per Insider. The St. Louis Cardinals' starting rotation clearly isn't going to look the same in 2025. There's always a chance that the Cardinals will bring in one cheap hurler this offseason in some way. The Cardinals also will be parting ways with some players, it seems. Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson are the most likely pitchers to leave the team this winter.

9/23/24 Beloved Rangers Star To Hit Free Agency Opening Door For Cardinals. If the St. Louis Cardinals want to make it back to the playoffs in 2025, they clearly will need to invest in some pitching this winter. The Cardinals' rotation was better in 2024 than it was in 2023. Plus, the Cardinals could lose an important piece or two with speculation building that Lance Lynn won't be back with the club in 2025. St. Louis needs to act quickly once again when free agency opens, and the player who should be at the top of their list is Texas Rangers pitcher Nathan Eovaldi.

9/19/24 Cardinals could reunite with standout starter to bolster rotation for 2025. The St. Louis Cardinals are going to have some holes to fill in the offseason. Both Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson could ultimately be gone, as they have club options for 2025 that may not be picked up. This will leave a hole in their rotation. Left-hander Jordan Montgomery has struggled with the Arizona Diamondbacks this season, though he does have a player option for 2025 that he could potentially decline.

9/18/24 Cardinals place RHP Lance Lynn (knee) on 15-day IL, ending his season. St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Lance Lynn, playing through a balky right knee this year, went on the 15-day injured list on Wednesday to end his season. In a corresponding move, the Cardinals recalled right-hander Michael McGreevy from Triple-A Memphis. Lynn, who has inflammation in the knee, went out a winner on Tuesday night, pitching six innings and allowing four hits, one run and two walks with five strikeouts in a 3-1 home victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates.
