St. Louis Cardinals — News
Pérez returns in under a month despite an eight-week projection, taking the mound today against Texas. The Marlins (41-39, +1 run diff) pair him against deGrom (3.59 ERA, 0.296 xwOBA), making this a significant roster reset after Pérez's IL stint.
Roycroft has no 2026 MLB stats, indicating he hasn't pitched in the majors this season; the deal clears roster space for St. Louis, which sits 42-34 with a +5 run differential.
Bratt has no 2026 MLB stats, indicating he hasn't pitched in the majors yet. Arizona will activate him for Wednesday's game against STL, where Kyle Leahy (4.63 ERA, 1.55 WHIP, 0.375 xwOBA) starts for the Cardinals.
May's 1-hit, 1-walk performance with 9 SO on 101 pitches is his strongest outing of the season—his 3.75 ERA and 8.27 K/9 have made him a swing starter, but this display strengthens his free-agent case heading into the deadline.
Rajcic enters a rotation where Liberatore (4.71 ERA, 1.50 WHIP) and Leahy (4.63 ERA, 1.55 WHIP) are bleeding runs; STL sits +11 in run differential despite middle-of-rotation weakness. No 2026 stats available for Rajcic, making this a depth move with limited immediate impact.
Chicago Cubs — News
Velasquez appeared in just 2 games with a 0.30 WHIP across 3.1 IP, clearing the way for Chicago's rotation (Assad 4.04 ERA, Imanaga 4.30) to remain intact heading into their series against San Diego.
Cubs improved to 47-38 with their third straight win after a late rally, while Mets fell to 35-50 (1-9 in last 10) despite a pinch-hit homer in their loss.
Chicago's 46-38 record and +40 run differential rank second in NL Central, but Suzuki remains a peripheral contributor with a .262 AVG and .336 xwOBA across 68 games—his power uptick (12 HR) masks a contact problem (77 SO in 68 G).
Pomeranz (5.01 ERA, 1.59 WHIP, 4.63 BB/9) represents organizational depth as Chicago's rotation manages a 4.40-5.86 ERA spread across five active starters. A Triple-A assignment indicates no immediate MLB role for a team at 46-38.
Wicks arrives with a 15.63 ERA across 6.1 IP—a downgrade from the rotation depth Cubs have built around Assad (4.04 ERA, 6-1) and Rolison (1.82 ERA in relief). Chicago stays at 45-38 with an open 40-man spot.
