In 22 appearances with the Padres this year, Tyson Ross started every single one of them. It was generally thought he would drop into the St. Louis Cardinals rotation. Instead, the team is sticking with youth to start games.
This is an interesting move by the Cardinals, especially considering the pending return of Brett Cecil. However, this does give the bullpen another guy to eat innings when needed, just like Dakota Hudson.
Reliever Ross
When looking at the splits, Ross is not that great out of the bullpen.
