Fox Sports Midwest is shuffling some of its rotation of pitchers-turned-broadcasters.
Brad Thompson is being added to FSM’s Cardinals television booth as the analyst for about 15 games this season, while Al Hrabosky’s schedule is being reduced by a similar amount.
Hrabosky, 68, and Thompson, 35, are former big-league hurlers who had their most success with the Redbirds. (Unaffected is the other ex-Cards pitcher on FSM’s roster, Rick Horton, 58.)
But Hrabosky, a key member of the team’s broadcast crew for more than three decades, still will be visible. He not only will have about 30-35 game broadcasts, but also remains in the rotation of commentators on FSM’s Cards pregame and postgame shows.
