"Andrew Kittredge Joins Cardinals in Multi-Team Trade Involving Rays and Former Guardians Player Palacios"

The Tampa Bay Rays have traded outfielder/first baseman Luke Raley to the Mariners for infielder Jose Caballero and dealt reliever Andrew Kittredge to the Cardinals for outfielder Richie Palacios. The moves aim to strengthen the Rays' infield defense amidst uncertainty surrounding star shortstop Wander Franco's legal issues and Taylor Walls' injury. Caballero is expected to provide solid defense and speed, while Palacios offers a left-handed batting option. The trades also create opportunities for other players in the system to step up.

"Cardinals Strengthen Bullpen with Kittredge, Trade Palacios to Rays"

The St. Louis Cardinals have strengthened their bullpen by trading outfielder Richie Palacios to the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for right-handed reliever and former All-Star Andrew Kittredge. Despite recovering from Tommy John surgery, Kittredge showed promising performance with a 3.09 ERA and strong pitch velocities last season. The Cardinals are looking to improve their late-inning options, and Kittredge brings experience and a proven track record, including a standout 2021 season. Palacios, who performed well in Triple-A and had a solid stint with the Cardinals, will now have an opportunity to compete for a spot with the Rays.
