Cardinals report positive update on pitcher Tekoah Roby

Summary

The St. Louis Cardinals received encouraging news regarding Tekoah Roby on August 7. Roby, who has been recovering from Tommy John surgery since July of last year, may soon begin facing hitters. He was traded to the Cardinals from the Texas Rangers in 2023 and has struggled with injuries since. Roby, currently the Cardinals' No. 12 prospect, has made limited appearances at Triple-A due to shoulder issues but has shown potential with a mid-90s fastball and effective breaking pitches. The organization boasts a deep pool of pitching talent, suggesting Roby could compete for a major league spot next season if he can return to form.
