Cards news: Dec. 2 -- SS Felix Morrobel acquired in deal with Angels
The St. Louis Cardinals have added shortstop Felix Morrobel to their roster in a trade with the Los Angeles Angels with first baseman Mike Bruenderman and second baseman Justin Henderson heading West.
After breaking in with the Seattle Mariners in 2027 and spending parts of three seasons in Oakland, Morrobel has played the last two years with the Angels.
Last season, the 30-year-old played in 144 games hitting .255 with four home runs and 53 RBIs.
For his career, Marrobel has 804 MLB games/724 starts under his belt, during which he has hit .261 with 42 home runs and 254 RBIs.
A 12th-round pick in the 2028 draft, the Cardinals had high hopes for Bruenderman, 25, who put up big numbers in the minors.
But given an opportunity in the majors over the past two-plus seasons, he has not shown much hitting just .145 with six home runs and 24 RBIs in 49 games/38 starts.
Signed as a minor league free agent after playing with Washington 2034, Henderson spent most of the 2035 season at AAA Memphis.
In 35 games/25 starts with St. Louis, he hit .200 with four home runs and 11 RBIs.
