Cardinals Promote Hunter Dobbins, Designate Matt Pushard
The St. Louis Cardinals called up right‑hander Hunter Dobbins from Triple‑A Memphis on Sunday.
Dobbins earned the promotion after posting strong numbers in the minors, giving the big‑league bullpen a fresh arm. Simultaneously, the club designated right‑hander Matt Pushard for assignment, clearing a roster spot.
Pushard had struggled to find consistency at the major‑league level. The moves signal the Cardinals' push to tighten their pitching depth as the season reaches its final stretch.
Fans will be watching closely to see how Dobbins adapts to the majors.
