Andrew Kittredge signs one-year deal with Cardinals, avoids arbitration

Andrew Kittredge signed a one-year deal worth $2.63 million with the Cardinals to avoid arbitration.

Fantasy Impact

Kittredge was acquired by St. Louis just last week in a trade. He should provide a role in the middle innings out of the Cardinals bullpen.

Andrew Kittredge dealt to Cardinals

Andrew Kittredge was acquired by the Cardinals on Friday in exchange for Richie Palacios.

Fantasy Impact

Kittredge was an All-Star in 2021, as he enjoyed a breakout season out of the Rays' bullpen. He was pitching well again in 2022 before Tommy John surgery in June knocked him out for about 14 months. Kittredge returned to the Rays for 14 relief appearances down the stretch of last season, posting a 3.09 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, and 10-to-2 K/BB ratio across 11 2/3 innings while recording one save. He also logged a scoreless inning during his one playoff appearance. Kittredge figures to factor into the late-inning relief mix for the Cardinals in 2024.

Andrew Kittredge (Tommy John surgery) to throw live BP Friday

Fantasy Impact

Kittredge is on track to returning potentially sometime at or around the All-Star break in July.

Andrew Kittredge to have Tommy John surgery

Andrew Kittredge will undergo Tommy John surgery on his elbow. He will miss the remainder of the 2022 season.

Fantasy Impact

This is tough news for the 32-year-old reliever who was having a solid 2022 (3.15 ERA, 6.3 K/9) season after a breakout 2021 season (1.88 ERA, 9.67 K/9). This surgery will likely keep Kittredge out for most of the 2023 season as well. The Rays' bullpen is tough to navigate right now with JP Feyereisen recently hitting the IL as well. Jason Adam recorded a save on Thursday, so it would seem he will be in a position for more saves down the line.

Andrew Kittredge (elbow) likely headed for surgery

Andrew Kittredge is likely headed for surgery to have a loose body removed from his elbow and will be out at least a month, according to Kevin Cash.

Fantasy Impact

That escalated quickly, as Kittredge was just placed on the IL with elbow soreness this morning, and now will be out for several weeks. He's obviously the leader of the committee for saves in Tampa Bay when healthy, but that hardly makes him one of the more valuable relievers in fantasy. If you have a free IL slot, then of course, stashing Kittredge is worthwhile. But otherwise, given his injury and the Rays' bullpen usage, managers can feel free to move on.
