Cardinals' Matt Svanson: Optioned to Memphis
The Cardinals optioned Svanson to Triple-A Memphis on Friday.
Svanson spent all of 2024 with Double-A Springfield, where he logged a 3.25 ERA and 1.49 WHIP across 63.2 innings. The Cardinals gave him a spot on their 40-man roster this offseason to prevent him from being scooped up in the Rule 5 Draft, and he'll now get to test his abilities at the Triple-A level for the first time.

Cardinals' Matt Svanson: Shielded from Rule 5 draft
The Cardinals added Svanson to the 40-man roster Tuesday.
A 25-year-old righty reliever who has not pitched above Double-A, Svanson logged a 2.69 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 59 strikeouts in 63.2 innings while notching 27 saves for Double-A Springfield. He will likely head to Triple-A Memphis to start the year, but should be an option to provide big-league bullpen depth throughout the summer.
