Suffers fifth loss Pallante (4-5) took the loss Monday against Texas, allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out five.

Impact The 25-year-old entered this outing on a roll, pitching to a 2.79 ERA across 19.1 innings in three July starts, but failed to reach the sixth for the first time this month. Pallante managed to limit the damage in this 92-pitch performance as he didn't allow a homer for the sixth time in 10 games started. However, his role in the St. Louis rotation is murky as the Cardinals acquired Erick Fedde on Monday, likely pushing Pallante into the bullpen as a middle reliever.

Notches second quality start Pallante did not factor into the decision Monday against the Pirates, allowing one earned run on three hits and two walks in six innings. He struck out three.

Impact Pallante was excellent in this one, firing six strong innings to earn his second quality start of the season. Unfortunately for Pallante, the Cardinals mustered just one run, resulting in a no-decision for the right-hander. The 25-year-old started the season as a relief pitcher but has filled in admirably as a starter due to injury. In nine starts, Pallante has logged a 3.42 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and a 38:16 K:BB across 47.1 innings. He is currently lined up for a home start against the Rangers his next time out.

Take defeat in Game 1 of twin bill Pallante (4-4) took the loss against Kansas City in Game 1 of Wednesday's doubleheader, allowing four runs on six hits and no walks while striking out five batters over 6.1 innings...

Impact Pallante cruised through four scoreless, one-hit frames before the Royals struck for three runs on four hits in the fifth. The right-hander was allowed to return for the sixth but was pulled after giving up a tiebreaking solo homer to Salvador Perez with one out. Pallante was consequently stuck with the loss, as St. Louis was unable to catch up. Despite the defeat, Pallante recorded his second-longest outing of the campaign while recording exactly five punchouts for his fourth straight appearance.

Royals-Cardinals game postponed Pallante and the Cardinals will not play Tuesday after their game against the Royals was postponed due to inclement weather.

Impact The contest will be made up as part of a split doubleheader Wednesday. Scheduled starter Pallante will be pushed back a day and now no longer is in line for a two-start week.

JULY 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Solid outing in no-decision Pallante came away with a no-decision in Thursday's win over the Pirates. He allowed one run in seven innings, giving up four hits and striking out five.

Impact Pallante gave up a solo home run to Bryan Reynolds in the fourth, which turned out to be his only hiccup on Thursday. For the third time in his career and the first this season, he goes at least seven innings in a start. He's been a dependable option for the Cardinals since being inserted into the rotation in May, pitching to a 3.34 ERA over seven starts. Outside of his starts vs. the Astros and Giants, in which he gave up a combined 11 earned runs, Pallante has only given up two earned runs in his other five starts this season.

Impresses in first start Pallante (1-1) earned the win Wednesday over the Reds, allowing three hits and three walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out six.

Impact Making his first big-league start since 2022, Pallante was sharp Wednesday, blanking Cincinnati over six innings in the winning effort. The 25-year-old right-hander has made nine appearances out of the bullpen in St. Louis this year, struggling to a 6.30 ERA over 10 innings, though he was solid in four starts with Triple-A Memphis, allowing just four earned runs in 16.1 innings. Pallante certainly did enough to warrant another turn in the Cards' rotation -- he'd currently line up for a road matchup with the Astros early next week.

MAY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Candidate to start Saturday Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Monday that Pallante is a candidate to start Saturday against the Cubs, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Impact The Cards are moving Matthew Liberatore back to the bullpen after trying him for a few starts, so they have an opening due to Steven Matz (back) still being on the mend. Pallante hasn't started a game in the majors since 2022 but has been getting stretched back out at Triple-A Memphis. His results have been mixed, as he's managed a 2.20 ERA but also an ugly 9:13 K:BB over 16.1 frames. Zack Thompson is the other main candidate to draw Saturday's start.

MAY 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent down to Triple-A The Cardinals optioned Pallante to Triple-A Memphis on Sunday.

Impact In his last outing Saturday against the Brewers, Pallante gave up three runs (two earned) on five hits and a walk. He has a 6.30 ERA, 1.90 WHIP and 6:5 K:BB over 10 innings to start the season. St. Louis recalled right-hander Nick Robertson in a corresponding move.

APRIL 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Pitching well in spring Pallante has pitched three scoreless innings over three appearances in Grapefruit League play.

Impact He's allowed a hit and a walk while striking out two. Pallante struggled to a 4.76 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 43:30 K:BB over 62 relief appearances in 2023 after splitting time between the rotation and bullpen in 2022. Pallante added 13 holds last year, but his poor play saw him in a low-leverage role to end the campaign. He'll be looking to get back into the late-innings mix in a crowded bullpen competition for the Cardinals.

MARCH 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Decent in September Pallante allowed one run on four hits over one inning during Saturday's 15-6 win over the Reds.

Impact Pallante allowed five runs over 13.2 innings in September, an improvement on the 12 runs (11 earned) he allowed in 13.2 innings during August. The right-hander has seen some high-leverage work in 2023, earning 13 holds, but just four of those have come since the start of August as he's worked in more of a middle-relief assignment. Pallante is at a 4.76 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 43:30 K:BB over 68 innings this season, a significant downturn from the 3.17 ERA he recorded in 108 innings in 2022.

OCTOBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Snags win Pallante (4-1) allowed a hit in a scoreless inning and earned the win Wednesday over the Padres.

Impact Pallante erased the hit with a double play, keeping the Cardinals within a run of the Padres in the ninth inning. Tommy Edman then delivered a walk-off two-run home run. This was just the fifth scoreless outing in 12 appearances in August for Pallante, who has still held onto a somewhat high-leverage role despite his lackluster recent performance. The right-hander has a 5.13 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 39:24 K:BB with 11 holds and five blown saves over 54.1 innings this season. With Ryan Helsley (forearm) nearing a return, Pallante could soon find himself in more of a middle-relief role.

AUGUST 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Collects win Pallante (3-1) allowed a run on two hits and a walk while striking out one over 1.1 innings to earn the win Wednesday over the Diamondbacks.

Impact Pallante has had a rough July, allowing seven runs over 8.2 innings this month. The right-hander has been scored on in four of his eight appearances in that span, but he was able to emerge with his first win since May 13. He's at a 4.78 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 31:20 K:BB through 37.2 innings overall. Pallante has added nine holds and five blown saves, though he could move up the leverage ladder a bit if Jordan Hicks is traded before Tuesday's deadline. Giovanny Gallegos would have the most to gain in that scenario.

JULY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Opening Game 1 on Saturday Pallante will open Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against Washington, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Impact After Friday's game was suspended during the third inning, Pallante will take the mound once action resumes Saturday. The 24-year-old righty has pitched at least two innings just once this season, so he'll presumably be relieved relatively quickly.

JULY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Handed first loss Pallante (2-1) allowed a run on two hits and struck out one without walking a batter over one inning, taking the loss Monday versus the Marlins.

Impact Pallante allowed an inherited runner to score the tying run, then gave up another run in the seventh inning in relief of Miles Mikolas. Over 9.1 innings in July, Pallante was tagged for four runs on eight hits and eight walks. He's been fortunate to avoid taking a loss prior to Monday, as he has an uninspiring 4.11 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 28:16 K:BB through 30.2 big-league innings this season. The right-hander has added eight holds and three blown saves -- he's seen more high-leverage work with Ryan Helsley (forearm) on the injured list.

JULY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up second win Saturday Pallante (2-0) allowed a hit and struck out one in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Red Sox.

Impact The Cardinals produced a comeback win for the second game in a row, and Pallante was the beneficiary after their three-run rally in the ninth inning. It's been mixed results for Pallante since he was recalled from Triple-A Memphis. He has given up a run in 4.1 innings while earning a win, a hold and a blown save over three appearances. The right-hander has a 5.68 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 10:5 K:BB through 12.2 innings overall as a middle reliever this season.

MAY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled from Triple-A The Cardinals recalled Pallante from Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Impact Pallante pitched well during his three-week stay at Memphis and will now look to get back to his 2022 form. He had surrendered seven earned runs on 12 hits and four walks over 8.1 innings this season with St. Louis prior to his mid-April demotion.

MAY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Triple-A Pallante was optioned Tuesday to Triple-A Memphis.

Impact JoJo Romero will join the Cardinals' bullpen in a corresponding move. Pallante served up a grand slam to Pavin Smith on Monday night and has allowed seven earned runs on 12 hits and four walks through 8.1 major-league innings for the year.

APRIL 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Snags win Wednesday Pallante (1-0) allowed an inherited runner to score but was not charged with a run in one inning of work, earning the win despite taking a blown save Wednesday versus the Rockies.

Impact Pallante got the last two outs of the seventh inning, but one was a run-scoring fielder's choice that tied the game at 4-4. The Cardinals retook the lead in the eighth and held onto it, putting Pallante in line for his first win in six appearances this season. The right-hander has struggled a bit with a 7.11 ERA and 1.74 WHIP over 6.1 innings, and he's added one hold. For now, he's likely to see work in middle relief.

Scoreless outing in return to team Pallante allowed a walk and struck out one in a scoreless inning during Wednesday's Grapefruit League game versus the Marlins.

Impact Pallante has a 4:2 K:BB over three scoreless innings for the Cardinals in spring training. The reliever is still considered part of the core of the bullpen, per John Denton of MLB.com. Pallante had a just alright showing for Italy at the World Baseball Classic, allowing two runs on three hits, six walks and a hit batsman while striking out two over four innings across three appearances. He's unlikely to be in the conversation for saves with Ryan Helsley and Giovanny Gallegos around, but Pallante could be a steady source of holds if he can maintain a high-leverage role.
