The St. Louis Cardinals outrighted pitcher Jared Shuster to the Memphis Redbirds on July 10, 2026. Forbes reported that the move marked the third time this season the team had designated the 27-year-old for assignment.
Shuster signed a minor league deal with the Cardinals before the 2026 season after being traded from the Atlanta Braves to the Chicago White Sox following the 2023 campaign. He made his MLB debut with the Braves that year, posting a 5.81 ERA over 11 starts, and later shifted to an exclusive relief role.
Shuster has recorded an 8.87 ERA across slightly more than 27 innings with Memphis this season.
He cleared waivers after the first two designations for assignment, according to Forbes. The Cardinals maintain a 4.26 team ERA in 2026. Shuster is out of minor league options, requiring the team to expose him to waivers whenever it needs to create a roster spot.
Forbes reported that the Cardinals have continued to value his left-handed depth despite the repeated roster adjustments.
