6/23/25 Cardinals $2 Million Reliever Could Help Phillies Fill Biggest Deadline Need. The St. Louis Cardinals are playing much better baseball following a six-game losing streak. After back-to-back series wins, they are back to six games above the .500 mark and only one game back in the National League Wild Card race. Tim Kelly of Bleacher Report noted that the Philadelphia Phillies need a high-leverage reliever. The Cardinals could help with that by sending Phil Maton their way.

6/11/25 MLB Writer Suggests Cardinals To Use Breakout Star As Trade Chip. The St. Louis Cardinals are in a tough spot ahead of the trade deadline this season. St. Louis will likely do a bit of both this season. FanSided's Curt Bishop recently suggested the Cardinals could use their lone free agent signing of the offseason, Phil Maton, as a trade chip this trade deadline season.

6/06/25 Cardinals Urged To Trade Breakout Star Pitcher. The St. Louis Cardinals seemed primed to rebuild this season which would have seen them trading away a lot of their expiring assets while holding onto their controllable players. Curt Bishop of Redbird Rants recently made the case that the Cardinals should entertain the idea of trading breakout reliever Phil Maton this season. Not to the degree that they would if Helsley were to be traded, but it could still be solid. Better yet, Maton could be used to help the Cardinals upgrade other areas of their roster, such as the starting rotation.

6/02/25 Cardinals $2 million reliever could be 'expendable' at trade deadline. The St. Louis Cardinals have played their way back into contention after starting the season 14-19. What they'll do at the trade deadline is not entirely clear. Scott Plaza of Redbird Rants listed reliever Phil Maton as somebody who could be expendable. Teams may be hesitant to give up too much for a rental and settle for a cheaper, effective option in Maton.

6/01/25 Cardinals Urged To Trade $2 Million Star Reliever At Trade Deadline. The St. Louis Cardinals have won 19 of their last 25 games and enter the month of June eight games over the .500 mark following a 2-0 win on Saturday over the Texas Rangers. Instead of selling, like many around the game thought they would, St. Louis may end up buying at the trade deadline, or at least holding firm. Scott Plaza of Redbird Rants listed reliever Phil Maton, their only free agent signing as somebody who could be traded. "I have to be careful citing an important bullpen piece as "expendable", but in the case of Phil Maton, he seems to be an option to be dealt, whether the Cardinals are competing or not," Plaza wrote.

5/21/25 Pallante goes 5 2/3 innings in tough series finale against Tigers. The 26-year-old was taken out of the game in the top of the sixth inning and gave up four hits, three earned runs, four walks and struck out three in 5 2/3 innings pitched. Pallante was relieved by Phil Maton, who got the final out of the inning, but gave up a hit in the process. St. Louis runners didn't make it past second base until the bottom of the sixth inning when Willson Contreras drove in Victor Scott II, which put the Cardinals on the board to make it a one-run game in favor of Detroit, 3-1.

5/16/25 MLB Writer Applauds Cardinals' $2 Million Free Agent Signing. The St. Louis Cardinals didn't do much besides take a few steps backward in free agency. While they were letting multiple contributing veterans walk away in free agency, the front office wasn't replacing them with new signings. In fact, for most of the offseason, the Cardinals didn't make any signings, but late in free agency, they agreed to a deal with a veteran relief pitcher. FanSided's Christopher Kline recently applauded the Cardinals' free agent signing of Phil Maton, noting it as one of the better under-the-radar signings in the league.

4/30/25 MLB Writer Proposes 'Quite Unlikely' Cardinals-Cubs Trade. The St. Louis Cardinals made a pretty great move for the bullpen ahead of the 2025 Major League Baseball season. St. Louis signed veteran reliever Phil Maton on March 13th and yet he was ready for Opening Day two weeks later on Opening Day. Maton has been great for the Cardinals so far this season but recently talked about the possibility of being traded this season. Newsweek's Andrew Wright even shared a "quite unlikely" idea of the Chicago Cubs acquiring him this summer.

4/18/25 Unwanted ex-Mets pitcher has an axe to grind this season: 'It's personal'. Phil Maton didn't make many headlines during his four months in a New York Mets uniform last season. “Every team we play — it is what it is, it's personal,” Maton told The New York Post. Maton revealed to the Post that he heard from the Mets one time in the offseason, when president of baseball operations David Stearns told him he would not pick up his $7.75 million option.

4/09/25 Cardinals 'Lineup Is Scary' Says Rising Star After Overwhelming Pirates' Paul Skenes. The St. Louis Cardinals didn't make any moves to bolster their lineup over the offseason but have emerged as one of the league's top offenses to begin 2025. If it weren't for the Cardinals' underperforming pitching staff, which only received one upgrade in veteran right-handed pitcher Phil Maton this past winter, St. Louis would easily be sitting at the top of the National League Central. Instead, the first-place Chicago Cubs hold a 2 1/2 game lead over the 5-6 record 11-time World Series champions. Tuesday night's 5-3 victory over the division-foe Pittsburgh Pirates was a testament to how dominant this year's Cardinals lineup could be -- handing phenom ace Paul Skenes his first loss of the season.

4/07/25 Cardinals Offense Among MLB's Best While Pitching Staff Falls Far Behind Curve. The St. Louis Cardinals have played well in 2025 despite many expecting the rebuilding franchise to endure another down year after the front office failed to act over the offseason. Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak signed one free agent over the winter -- right-handed pitcher Phil Maton -- but neglected to help the club reset by trading several remaining veterans, such as flamethrower Ryan Helsley and superstar third baseman Nolan Arenado. Despite Mozeliak's lack of action over the offseason, the Cardinals' lineup has performed well this year and is among some of the league's top offenses. If St. Louis' pitching staff can turn things around, the 11-time World Series champions could be competitive.

3/27/25 Cardinals vs. Twins radio station: Channel, live streams, time to listen live to MLB Opening Day game broadcast. The Cardinals and the Twins are set to square off on MLB Opening Day this Thursday at Busch Stadium. The Cardinals wrapped up the 2024 season with an 83-79 record, securing second place in the NL Central but finishing 10 games behind the division-winning Milwaukee Brewers. As they head into the 2025 campaign, the Cardinals find themselves in a bit of a gray area. This season appears to be more of a transitional phase rather than a full-fledged push for contention. Despite signaling a desire for a "reset" after last season, the front office made minimal roster changes, opting to hold onto their veteran core while making just one significant addition—reliever Phil Maton.
