José Fermín - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Will get look in outfield Cardinals president of baseball operations Chaim Bloom said Saturday that the signing of Ramon Urias could lead to more playing time in the outfield for Fermin, Brian Murphy of MLB...

Impact Fermin is an infielder by trade, but he's seen a bit of action in the outfield in the majors and at the Triple-A level. The 26-year-old slashed .283/.377/.417 in 70 appearances with the big club and .300/.428/.485 with a 45:25 BB:K at Triple-A Memphis in 2025. Fermin could see more of an opportunity at the big-league level in 2026 as the Cardinals go through a rebuild.

Taken out of lineup Fermin was scratched from the lineup ahead of Tuesday's game versus the Giants, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Impact Fermin was initially penciled in to start at second base for the injured Brendan Donovan (groin), but the latter was cleared to play shortly before Tuesday's contest and took Fermin's place in the lineup. The 26-year-old has done well while serving as infield depth this season, slashing .315/.403/.463 with nine RBI, four runs scored and two steals through 63 plate appearances.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2025 • Associated Press

Back in big leagues The Cardinals recalled Fermin from Triple-A Memphis on Wednesday.

Impact Fermin is grabbing the roster spot vacated by the injured Willson Contreras (shoulder). He's slashed .298/.389/.404 in limited action this season and will operate as a reserve infielder down the stretch.

Demoted with Arenado returning The Cardinals optioned Fermin to Triple-A Memphis on Monday.

Impact With St. Louis bringing back Nolan Arenado (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list, Fermin was an expendable piece in the Cardinals infield. After receiving a promotion from Memphis on Saturday, Fermin appeared in one of the Cardinals' final two games of the series in Milwaukee over the weekend, going 2-for-3 with an RBI and a stolen base.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Swipes base in win Fermin went 2-for-3 with a stolen base and one RBI in Sunday's 3-2 win versus the Brewers.

Impact The St. Louis infielder tallied his second steal of the season, taking second off Milwaukee starter Jose Quintana in the second inning. Fermin was subsequently caught stealing when trying to nab home later in the frame. Fermin, who is now slashing .298/.389/.404 in 55 total plate appearances, is in a bench role currently for the Cardinals. He could become an intriguing fantasy option for batting average and speed since he hit .305 with 20 steals in 289 Triple-A plate appearances this season.

Officially called up The Cardinals recalled Fermin from Triple-A Memphis on Saturday.

Impact This move had been anticipated after Masyn Winn was shut down for the season Friday due to a knee injury. Fermin was just optioned to Memphis on Friday, and he didn't get into any games with the Redbirds during his latest (and briefest) time on their roster. Now that Fermin is back with the Cardinals, he'll likely serve as a utility infielder.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Set to be recalled Fermin will be recalled from Triple-A Memphis on Saturday to take the roster spot vacated by Masyn Winn (knee), Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact Fermin was just sent down Friday to accommodate the return of Brendan Donovan, but he'll rejoin the roster a day later after the Cardinals decided to shut Winn (knee) down for the season. While Fermin could see the occasional rep at shortstop while Winn is shelved, he'll likely operate mostly as a reserve infielder in the final weeks.

Sent to Triple-A The Cardinals optioned Fermin to Triple-A Memphis on Friday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact With Brendan Donovan (groin) back from the injured list and batting leadoff Friday in Milwaukee, Fermin will head back to Memphis. Fermin has slashed .273/.360/.386 with one home run, four RBI, three runs scored and a 6:7 BB:K across 51 plate appearances at the big-league level this season.

Back to bench after three starts Fermin is not in the lineup for Monday's game in Seattle.

Impact Fermin started each of the previous three games -- two at third base and one at second base -- while Nolan Gorman shifted to first base to cover for the suspended Willson Contreras. However, Alec Burleson (wrist) is back from the 10-day injured list and will handle first base Monday. Fermin has fared well in his limited chances this season, slashing .278/.381/.417 with one homer and a 6:6 K:BB over 20 contests.

Optioned to Memphis The Cardinals optioned Fermin to Triple-A Memphis on Saturday.

Impact Fermin will be sent back to the minors following Lars Nootbaar's (ribs) return from the injured list. Fermin has gone 7-for-20 with a homer, two RBI and two runs scored through 12 games in the majors this season and also boasts a .902 OPS through 252 Triple-A plate appearances. His productive bat and versatile glove make him a candidate to return to St. Louis when rosters expand in September.

AUGUST 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Cranks first big-league homer Fermin went 1-for-4 with a go-ahead, two-run home run in Sunday's win over Atlanta.

Impact Making his first major-league start in left field and just his second career start at any outfield position, Fermin broke a 3-3 tie with a two-run blast off of Jesse Chavez in the bottom of the sixth inning. It was the first major-league home run in the career of Fermin, who was playing his 10th game this season and 76th game of his career. Fermin is traditionally an infielder, but he could some starts in the corner outfield spots versus lefties while Lars Nootbaar (ribs) and Jordan Walker (appendix) are out.
