There is a lot of uncertainty surrounding the Cardinals pitching staff this offseason. Adam Wainwright is a free agent and may not return while Carlos Martinez’s struggles, as well as his contract, may lead to the Cardinals looking for a trade. Additionally, Kwang Hyun Kim’s 1.62 ERA was solid last year, but his 3.88 FIP and 4.52 xFIP make him look like an average starting pitcher. Therefore, the Cardinals may be willing to bump him into the bullpen. Additionally, Miles Mikolas missed all of the 2020 season with an injury and Dakota Hudson will likely miss all of the 2021 season after needing Tommy John surgery.
Is Alex Reyes Ready for the Rotation?
