APRIL 11 • Associated Press

Scratched from Monday's lineup Fermin has been scratched from the Cardinals' lineup against the Nationals on Monday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact Fermin was initially slated to start in left field and bat eighth. However, Masyn Winn (hip) has been cleared to return from a two-game absence, so the Cardinals have elected to shift Thomas Saggese from shortstop to left field while moving Fermin to the bench. Fermin has appeared in just two regular-season games in 2026, with his lone start taking place Friday against the Tigers.

Slated for playing time in LF Fermin is among those in the mix for starts in left field while Lars Nootbaar (heels) is sidelined, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact Fermin is an infielder by trade but has played a bit in the outfield in the majors and at the Triple-A level. The 26-year-old will vie for playing time in left field with Nathan Church and Thomas Saggese. Church is the lone left-handed hitter of the three and also the only traditional outfielder, so he likely enters the season at the top of the pecking order. However, Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol has said he does not plan to employ a strict platoon at the position.

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.

Cardinals place first baseman Willson Contreras on the 10-day IL with a shoulder strain

The St. Louis Cardinals have placed first baseman Willson Contreras on the 10-day injured list with a right shoulder strain, ending his season

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.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

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.
