Saggese's Hot Streak Puts Him Back on Cardinals' Radar

Utility man Thomas Saggese is making a strong case for a more consistent role with the St. Louis Cardinals. Following injuries to Masyn Winn and JJ Wetherholt, Saggese has capitalized on his chance to impress. He was demoted to Triple-A in early June after a difficult start, batting just .184.

However, Saggese has since turned his season around. Since being recalled to the majors, he has slashed an impressive .517/.543/.931 with three home runs in nine games. This recent performance has boosted his season slash line to .276/.333/.457 with four home runs. Saggese has provided versatility, playing second base, shortstop, left field, and third base, with his bat potentially securing him a role in 2027.
