Andrew Kittredge News
The St. Louis Cardinals acquired relief pitcher Andrew Kittredge from the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday in exchange for outfielder Richie Palacios, according to a source. Kittredge returned from Tommy John surgery in August of 2023 and was able to hold opponents to a .683 OPS in his 14 relief appearances for Tampa. The 33-year-old right-hander was an All-Star in 2021, when he had a 1.88 ERA (3.04 FIP) and 0.98 WHIP with a career-high eight saves and career-high 77 strikeouts in 71 2/3 innings over 57 outings (four starts). Kittredge won't be a favorite saves in St. Louis -- that falls to Ryan Helsley -- but he'll remain in a high-leverage role and is a solid acquisition for a Cardinals bullpen that really let them down this past season. Kittredge should be relevant in deep holds leagues if he can stay healthy.
The Tampa Bay Rays reinstated relief pitcher Andrew Kittredge (elbow) from the 60-day injured list on Thursday and designated right-hander Hector Perez for assignment in a corresponding move. Kittredge will be making his 2023 debut when he gets into a game after undergoing Tommy John surgery in June of 2022. He was an All-Star in 2021 when he had a 1.88 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, a career-high eight saves and 77 strikeouts in 71 2/3 relief innings, so he should eventually work his way back into high-leverage situations and could be an asset in deeper fantasy leagues that count holds. For now, though, expect Tampa to ease him in as more of a middle reliever after such a long layoff, which will limit his fantasy appeal. Pete Fairbanks remains the Rays' closer.
Tampa Bay Rays relief pitcher Andrew Kittredge (elbow) continues to work his way back from last year's Tommy John surgery. The right-hander has already made 15 minor league rehab appearances this season. It sounds like the veteran reliever is making solid progress and is nearly ready to return. In fact, Kittredge will reportedly be ready to join the team for their next series versus the Los Angeles Angels. The expectation is that the Rays are going to ease Kittredge into his role. The hope is that he'll be a successful high-leverage option once he's fully healthy.
