Cardinals Option Johan Oviedo
3 years agoThe St. Louis Cardinals have optioned starting pitcher Johan Oviedo to Triple-A Memphis, according to Katie Woo of The Athletic. The Cardinals are expected to use a four-man rotation for the next couple of weeks. Oviedo has had a tough year in the big leagues, posting a 4.91 ERA, 5.26 FIP, a weak 17.7 K% and a bloated 12.8 BB%. He will continue to work on his command while he tries to make a return to the Cardinals. Oviedo was never much of a fantasy option this season, and that won't change if he were to return to the team's rotation from this point on. Fantasy managers needing pitching depth shouldn't consider picking him up.
