Quinn Mathews Assigned To Minor-League Camp

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitching prospect Quinn Mathews was assigned to minor-league camp on Sunday. As a result, the budding ace will not open the season in the major leagues. Mathews was invited to camp and had an outside chance of breaking the Opening Day roster. However, the team will opt to let their top arm continue his development in the minor leagues. Last season, the 24-year-old made his professional debut and looked quite comfortable. He spent most of his season at Double-A where he logged 52 1/3 innings to the tune of a 2.41 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP. He tallied 70 punchouts and served up just 15 free passes. Then, in his first 16 2/3 innings at Triple-A, the southpaw served up 12 earned runs. Fantasy managers should monitor his development as he should open the season at Triple-A. If he can take the next step at Triple-A, he could push for an early-season MLB debut.

Quinn Mathews Strikes Out Three In First Grapefruit League Game

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher prospect Quinn Mathews made his spring debut on Tuesday, tossing two innings of scoreless ball in a 3-2 Grapefruit League loss to the Blue Jays. The southpaw yielded two hits and one walk while striking out three in the outing. The Stanford product was a fourth-round draft pick for the Cardinals in 2023 but didn't see his first professional game action until 2024. The 6-foot-5 hurler began the season at Single-A but advanced all the way to Triple-A by season's end after showing elite strikeout rates at each stop, finishing with 202 strikeouts (35.4 percent K%) over 143 1/3 innings of work. His command faltered a bit when he arrived at Triple-A which likely prevented a late-season call-up in 2024, but a 2025 debut is looking more and more likely. The 24-year-old could be a viable source of Ks whenever he gets the call, so fantasy managers will want to keep an ear to the ground for any rumblings of a major league promotion once the regular season begins, but as it stands now without a rotation spot, he isn't on the draft radar in standard 12-team leagues.

Quinn Mathews Invited To Spring Training

According to the team, St. Louis Cardinals pitching prospect Quinn Mathews is being invited to spring training. Mathews enjoyed a fantastic campaign last summer and is a budding ace in the Cardinals system. The former fourth-round pick in the 2023 MLB Draft made his professional debut with Single-A last season. However, the southpaw progressed through the entire pipeline and finished the season by getting a brief taste of Triple-A. The left-handed pitcher looked sharp at Double-A as he held a 2.41 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP with 70 strikeouts across 52 2/3 innings. He struggled in Triple-A, as he allowed 12 runs through 16 frames. However, seeing the 24-year-old progress at that pace in his first professional season is impressive. Earlier this offseason, it was reported that the Cardinals had already begun trade discussions with starting pitchers Erick Fedde and Steven Matz. This could open the door for an early 2025 debut, especially if he can turn the corner at Triple-A.

Quinn Mathews Will Receive Invite To Spring Training

According to Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Dispatch, starting pitching prospect Quinn Mathews will receive a non-roster invite to Spring Training. This is a great sign, as Mathews could have a great opportunity to make the Opening Day roster. The southpaw is considered one of the top pitching prospects in the sport and was named Baseball America's top pitching prospect of the 2024 season. The 24-year-old opened the season with Single-A and eventually progressed all the way up to Triple-A by August. Across all four levels of the St. Louis system, the Stanford product carried a solid 2.76 ERA and a stellar 0.98 WHIP. He struck out an incredible 202 batters across 143 1/3 innings while giving up just 49 free passes. He spent the most time at Double-A, posting a 2.41 ERA and 0.96 WHIP. Given his elite strikeout upside, fantasy managers in deeper formats should pay close attention to Mathews as he may be a popular late-round target in drafts this offseason.

Quinn Mathews Promoted To Triple-A

St. Louis Cardinals left-handed pitching prospect Quinn Mathews has been promoted from Double-A Springfield to Triple-A Memphis. The 23-year-old southpaw starter will join his fourth team of the season after starting 2024 at Single-A Palm Beach. Mathews, the No. 60 overall prospect in baseball and St. Louis' No. 3 prospect per MLB Pipeline, is 8-3 on the year with a strong 2.27 ERA in 22 starts and leads all minor-league pitchers with 180 strikeouts in only 126 2/3 innings of work. The Stanford product has held a downright dominant 0.85 ERA, 0.63 WHIP and 49 strikeouts with only five walks in his last 31 2/3 innings at Springfield. Mathews is one of the fastest-rising pitching prospects in the game and could spend considerable time in the Cardinal's starting rotation at the big-league level in 2025. Stash him now in dynasty/keeper leagues if he's available.

Quinn Mathews Dominant Again In Latest Start

St. Louis Cardinals pitching prospect Quinn Mathews continued his dominion over minor league hitters in his latest start on Saturday for Double-A Springfield. The lefty tossed seven innings of scoreless ball, allowing five hits and no walks while striking out 11 batters. It was the sixth time this season that the southpaw has struck out 11 or more batters (21 starts), now with an elite 36.1% K% and impressive 34:168 BB:K over 119 IP. The former fourth-round pick has ascended three levels of the minors in his first taste of pro ball this season. There's certainly nothing left to prove at Double-A, so perhaps the 23-year-old gets a spot start at Triple-A or the majors down the stretch, but either way, look for him in St. Louis at some point next season.

Quinn Mathews Sharp In Latest Start

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitching prospect Quinn Mathews was sharp in his latest outing on Sunday evening as he logged five innings of one-run ball. He allowed just two hits, two free passes, and six punchouts. Across his past four starts, the southpaw has held a stellar 1.69 ERA, 0.94 WHIP, and a 7:31 BB:K ratio. Since moving up to Double-A Springfield in late June, Mathews has carried a solid 3.11 ERA, 1.12 WHIP, and a 14:47 BB:K ratio through his first 37 innings of work. Earlier this summer, at High-A, the number-two ranked prospect in St. Louis on MLB.com boasted a 2.68 ERA and a 0.76 WHIP through 43 frames. Mathews has shot up prospect rankings all summer and should contend for a major league debut next season.

Quinn Mathews Notches 11 Strikeouts In Six Scoreless Innings

St. Louis Cardinals pitching prospect Quinn Mathews was electric on Tuesday night, strikeout out 11 and allowing just two hits and a walk in six shutout innings to pick up his first win at Double-A Springfield. It's the fifth outing of 11 or more strikeouts for the talented left-hander this season. Mathews leads all of the minors with 151 punchouts this season. The Cardinals' No. 2 prospect has a 7-3 record with a 2.52 ERA and 0.90 WHIP across three levels this year. One of the best southpaws in the minors, Mathews is a must-have in dynasty leagues and should be watched closely as he nears a major league debut in the next year or so.

Quinn Mathews Strikes Out Nine Wednesday

St. Louis Cardinals pitching prospect Quinn Mathews threw six innings of one-run ball on Wednesday for Double-A Springfield, allowing four hits and one walk while striking out nine batters. The 23-year-old has shown impressive strikeout stuff across three levels of the minors this season, posting a 2.67 ERA, 0.92 WHIP, and 140 strikeouts in 101 innings pitched. His ERA has been somewhat elevated through five starts at Double-A (4.05), but that can be attributed mostly to just one poor outing in which he allowed six earned runs. Based on his stuff and quick ascension through the minors after being drafted in 2023, it's not unreasonable to think he'll be in the majors at some point next season. Dynasty managers should already be stashing the lefty.

Quinn Mathews Makes Futures Game Roster

St. Louis Cardinals pitching prospect Quinn Mathews has been having an incredible season on the farm and he has been rewarded with a spot in the All-Star Futures Game. Mathews is the Cardinals No. 2 prospect per MLB Pipeline and was recently promoted to Double-A Springfield where he didn't miss a beat in his debut last week. Mathews has quickly risen through the Cardinals system since being drafted in the fourth round of the 2023 MLB draft and has already pitched in three levels in his professional debut season. Between Single-A, High-A and Double-A this season, Mathews has gone 6-2 with a 2.22 ERA to go along with 120 strikeouts over 85 innings in 15 starts. Mathews is unlikely to make the team this year, but at the pace he is going, he could be an option in 2025. Dynasty managers should consider rostering Mathews, while redraft managers should remember his option as a stash option next season.
