Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: Fires seven scoreless in win
Rotowire
McGreevy (7-3) earned the win over the Reds on Tuesday, allowing three hits and three walks across seven scoreless innings. He struck out six.
McGreevy delivered the longest scoreless outing of his career (17 starts), capping it off by striking out five of the final six batters he faced. The right-hander has been a steady source of innings lately, going at least six frames in eight of his last nine starts, though he's posted a middling 3.57 ERA across 53 innings in that span due to occasional blow-up outings. On the season, the 25-year-old now owns a 4.08 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 53:15 K:BB across 86 innings. He's lined up to face the Giants in his next scheduled outing, a potentially tough matchup given San Francisco's .767 OPS against right-handers in September.

Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: Tames Mariners in no-decision
Rotowire
McGreevy allowed one run on five hits and no walks while striking out four batters over six innings in a no-decision against Seattle on Wednesday.
McGreevy's most recent start before Wednesday was a disaster, as he gave up six runs over a season-low four frames. The righty bounced back nicely against the Mariners, holding them without an extra-base hit over his six innings. McGreevy finished with his sixth quality start through 14 outings this season, but the Cardinals' offense produced only one run while he was in the contest, so he wasn't rewarded with a victory. McGreevy has been up and down while in the majors this year, posting a 4.44 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 47:12 K:BB through 79 innings.

Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: Lit up for six runs in third loss
Rotowire
McGreevy (6-3) took the loss Friday against the Giants, allowing six runs on nine hits and one walk in four innings. He struck out three.
McGreevy was torched during his shortest start of the year, tying a season high in hits allowed. The six runs given up were one shy of his season worst, and he pitched fewer than five innings for only the third time in 13 outings on the campaign. The right-hander owns an uninspiring 4.68 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 43:12 K:BB in 2025, though his streaming appeal should see a slight boost from matchup at pitcher-friendly T-Mobile Park against the Mariners next week.

He'll carry a 4.17 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 40:11 K:BB across 69 frames into a home matchup with the Giants next weekend.

Rotowire
McGreevy allowed four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out seven batters over six innings in a no-decision against Pittsburgh on Monday.

The righty recovered well from that rough frame, retiring 10 of the final 11 batters he faced, with the only Pirates baserunner over that stretch being wiped out on a double play. Though McGreevy had a three-outing streak of quality starts snapped Monday, he did manage to once again give St. Louis six innings, which he's done in each of his past five starts. Over that stretch, he's compiled a decent 3.90 ERA with a 21:4 K:BB across 30 frames.

McGreevy has also reached six innings in four straight starts, though he's given up three or more runs in three of those.

Rotowire

After some shaky defense behind him in a first inning that saw two San Diego runs score on two hits, a walk and an error, McGreevy was never able to fully right the ship in this contest. The St. Louis right-hander wound up conceding a career-worst nine base knocks (three doubles and six singles) in this 99-pitch outing. Across 33 total frames, he now sports a 4.91 ERA, 3.27 FIP, 1.21 WHIP and 19:5 K:BB. The 25-year-old is currently slated to face the Padres again in his next start on the road next weekend.
Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: Staying in St. Louis rotation
Rotowire
McGreevy will remain in the Cardinals' rotation and start Sunday against the Padres, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Erick Fedde has been designated for assignment, officially clearing a spot in the St. Louis rotation. McGreevy is due for a long-term opportunity at the major-league level, having posted a 2.81 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 35:5 K:BB over 51.1 innings covering seven starts and two relief appearances with the Cardinals since last season. The 25-year-old has put up a 3.72 ERA and 78:15 K:BB over 75 frames this year at Triple-A Memphis. McGreevy is worth scooping up in deeper fantasy leagues where he's available.
