Michael McGreevy - Page 9 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Called up for Sunday's start The Cardinals recalled McGreevy from Triple-A Memphis to start Sunday against the Dodgers.

Impact The right-hander made his season debut in early May with 5.2 scoreless frames for the Cardinals and will take the mound again Sunday in a tough matchup versus Los Angeles. McGreevy is one of the organization's top prospects and has pitched well at Memphis this season with a 2.78 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 58:12 K:BB across 55 innings. According to John Denton of MLB.com, manager Oliver Marmol has already indicated that McGreevy is likely to stick with the Cardinals beyond Sunday's contest.

Will be called up for start Sunday Cardinals manager Oli Marmol has confirmed that McGreevy will be called up from the minors to start Sunday's game against the Dodgers, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Impact McGreevy was effective in his lone major-league outing this season, tossing 5.2 scoreless frames with five strikeouts, one walk and just one hit allowed against the Mets on May 4. The right-hander has also fared well with Triple-A Memphis, posting a 2.78 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 58:12 K:BB over 55 innings. McGreevy could be up for just a spot start unless Matthew Liberatore -- who departed Thursday's game against Kansas City due to fatigue -- needs to miss time, but Marmol has suggested that he's not concerned about Liberatore's early exit.

Could draw start Sunday McGreevy could be lined up to make a spot start Sunday against the Dodgers, Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact The Cardinals are likely to use a spot starter at least once this month as they navigate a stretch with 28 games in 29 days. McGreevy was pulled from Tuesday's start at Triple-A Memphis after throwing 75 pitches over 4.1 scoreless innings, seemingly in an effort to keep his arm as fresh as possible for a start this weekend. Giving McGreevy a start Sunday would allow extra rest for Andre Pallante, who has a 7.47 ERA over his last three starts.

Might get spot starts in June The Cardinals could use McGreevy as a spot starter during their stretch in June of 28 games in 29 days, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Impact McGreevy is scheduled to start Tuesday at Triple-A Memphis, but it's possible his next turn after that will come with the big club. The right-hander tossed 5.2 scoreless frames in an extended relief outing with the Cardinals in early May and has posted a 3.02 ERA and 54:11 K:BB across 50.2 frames this season with Memphis. Steven Matz is also an option for a spot start or two this month, but the Cardinals appear to be leaning toward keeping him in the bullpen since he's no longer stretched out to provide significant length as a starter.

Optioned to Triple-A The Cardinals optioned McGreevy to Triple-A Memphis on Monday.

Impact McGreevy was fantastic in long relief in the second game of Sunday's doubleheader sweep of the Mets, tossing scoreless innings with five strikeouts. However, the Cardinals want to keep him on a starter's schedule, so he will return to the Memphis rotation later this week.

Picks up win out of bullpen McGreevy earned the victory in the second game of Sunday's doubleheader versus the Mets, tossing 5.2 scoreless innings with five strikeouts.

Impact McGreevy replaced an ineffective Andre Pallante in the top of the fourth inning and escaped a bases-loaded, one-out jam. He then faced just three over the minimum the rest of the way, which included retiring the final 10 batters he went up against. McGreevy is worthy of a long look in the Cardinals' rotation, but for now he's likely headed back to Triple-A Memphis, where he's posted a 4.08 ERA and 25:7 K:BB over 28.2 innings this season.

Recalled from Memphis The Cardinals recalled McGreevy from Triple-A Memphis on Saturday.

Impact Although his stays in the majors were brief, McGreevy performed well for the Cardinals last season, turning in a 1.96 ERA and 0.78 WHIP with an 18:2 K:BB across 23 innings. He hasn't had quite the same success in Memphis this season (4.08 ERA, 1.31 WHIP), but he'll rejoin the big club anyway and presumably work as a long reliever. Roddery Munoz was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Beginning campaign in minors The Cardinals optioned McGreevy to Triple-A Memphis on Sunday.

Impact McGreevy was in the running for a rotation spot and had an excellent spring with a 1.08 ERA, 0.60 WHIP and 12:0 K:BB over 16.2 innings. However, St. Louis is giving Matthew Liberatore the fifth-starter role to begin the season, while McGreevy will start in the minors and Steven Matz will work in long relief. The Cardinals intend to go to a six-man rotation beginning April 16, per Katie Woo of The Athletic, and McGreevy seems to be a prime candidate to move into the big-league rotation at that point.

Impresses again Friday McGreevy struck out four while yielding just one hit over five scoreless frames in Friday's Grapefruit League start versus the Mets.

Impact McGreevy's impressive spring continues, as he now boasts a 1.08 ERA, 0.60 WHIP and 12:0 K:BB across 16.2 innings of work. The young righty could be left out of the Cardinals' Opening Day rotation in spite of the strong Grapefruit League showing, although the club is mulling a six-man setup that would help McGreevy's chances.

St. Louis mulling six-man rotation Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Monday that the club is discussing using a six-man rotation to begin the season, with McGreevy serving as the sixth starter, John Denton of MLB...

Impact Sonny Gray, Erick Fedde and Miles Mikolas are locked into rotation spots, and Andre Pallante and Steven Matz are heavily favored for two other slots. Utilizing a six-man rotation would add a spot for McGreevy, who could swing back-and-forth between starting and relieving, per Denton. McGreevy has been the club's best starter this spring, allowing just two runs with an 8:0 K:BB over 11.2 innings.

Manager rules out relief role Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol on Sunday dismissed the possibility of McGreevy making the Opening Day roster as a reliever, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact There had been some talk of McGreevy being used in the bullpen if he's unable to crack the Opening Day rotation, but Marmol said of the righty that, "I don't see him as a guy who will benefit at all by going to the 'pen and breaking with us in that type of role." McGreevy has been arguably the team's best starter this spring, allowing just one run with a 4:1 K:BB over 7.2 innings. However, if the Cardinals elect to use Steven Matz in the rotation -- which it seems they're leaning toward doing -- McGreevy might be the odd man out, which would mean starting the year in the rotation at Triple-A Memphis.

MARCH 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Could be considered for bullpen The Cardinals might consider putting McGreevy in their Opening Day bullpen, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Impact McGreevy has allowed only one hit over five scoreless innings this spring and is still in the mix to break camp as part of the rotation. However, if Andre Pallante and Steven Matz nab the team's final two rotation spots, it's possible McGreevy will be carried on the roster as a reliever, at least initially. The other option is to keep him stretched out as a starter at Triple-A Memphis.

MARCH 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Two perfect frames in spring start McGreevy struck out a pair in two perfect frames this past week against the Yankees in his spring debut.

Impact All six batters McGreevy's faced were projected regulars for the Yankees, and he disposed of them efficiently in needing just 21 pitches to cruise through his two frames. Steven Matz appears to be McGreevy's biggest competition for a spot in the Cardinals' rotation, and Matz also tossed two scoreless innings in his first Grapefruit League start. A trade of either Matz or Erick Fedde would figure to secure McGreevy's spot.

Shows up in great shape McGreevy added 15 pounds of muscle this offseason, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Impact McGreevy reported to spring training with a shot at winning one of the last spots in the Cardinals rotation, saying he tried to trim as much body fat as he could while putting on the 15 pounds of muscle. "He looks good [this spring training]," said manager Oliver Marmol of McGreevy. "He put on some weight and had a really good offseason, and I'm excited to see what's coming out of that arm." The 24-year-old righty logged 150 innings at Triple-A and 23 innings in the majors last season. He registered an elite 62.5 percent groundball rate and 2.3 percent walk rate in the majors, leading to a 0.78 WHIP. McGreevy sits in the low-90s with his fastball, but he has a plus slider and his command might be double-plus. Andre Pallante and Steven Matz may have a leg up on McGreevy for the final two spots in the rotation, but McGreevy is arguably the most appealing of the three for fantasy.

Fires gem Sunday McGreevy (3-0) allowed a run on five hits over eight innings Sunday, striking out six and earning a win over the Giants.

Impact McGreevy let just one Giant reach scoring position through six frames before finally coughing up an RBI single to Brett Wisely in the seventh inning. McGreevy was very efficient, throwing 64 of 91 pitches for strikes, though he forced only seven whiffs. He was impressive during his short rookie season; McGreevy posted a 1.96 ERA and an 18:2 K:BB through 23 frames.
