8/27/24 Cardinals release player acquired in Dylan Carlson trade.

The Cardinals were buyers at the deadline with the hope of making a playoff push over the second half of the season. In a bit of a head scratching move, St. Louis designated Armstrong for assignment on Tuesday, according to The Athletic's Katie Woo.
