Cards news: June 14 -- OF/IF Chisholm and minor league catcher dealt to NYY for minor-league pitcher
The St. Louis Cardinals have traded IF/OF Jazz Chisholm Jr. and minor-league catcher Jimmy Crooks to the New York Yankees in exchange for minor-league starting pitcher Josue Panacal.
Acquired in the off-season from the Florida Marlins to be a jack-of-all trades everyday player, Chisholm was a big disappointment for the Cardinals.
In 52 games/48 starts, the 28-year-old hit just .180 with three home runs and 14 RBIs.
Panacual, 24, comes to the Cardinals with some major-league experience.
He has pitched in 55 games/54 starts for the Yankees going 20-21 with a 4.38 ERA.
This season, he made five starts for New York going 2-2 with a 5.02 ERA.
At AAA Scranton, he was 2-3 in eight starts with a 4.61 ERA.
Panacual will be assigned to AAA Memphis.
Crooks, 24, has spent this season at AAA where in 42 games/37 starts, he has hit .311 with 17 home runs and 37 RBIs.
