Cardinals consider Shane Bieber as offseason target from Blue Jays

Summary

The St. Louis Cardinals, having missed the playoffs this season, are seeking ways to enhance their roster for the upcoming campaign. Analysts suggest targeting Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Shane Bieber as a potential addition. With a solid ERA of 4.03 this season and set to become a free agent, Bieber could provide veteran experience, despite concerns about his injury history. Additionally, the Cardinals may also pursue Anthony Volpe from the New York Yankees, viewed as a low-risk option after his recent strong performance. Volpe has batted.290 since returning to the majors and could boost his trade value with strong postseason play if available.
