Fernandez heads back to the minors through no fault of his own. The 27-year-old has allowed three runs (one earned) on seven hits in 5 2/3 innings for the Cardinals this season with a 9/2 K/BB ratio. The team needed another starting pitcher and had Hunter Dobbins (knee) come off the injured list for Thursday’s start.

The 26-year-old hurler was a key cog in the Cardinals’ bullpen in 2024 but struggled to a cringe-inducing 11.42 ERA, 2.31 WHIP and a 7/5 K/BB ratio over 8 2/3 innings in his first 11 appearances this season. He’ll see if he can work through his issues at the Triple-A level before returning to the Cardinals’ bullpen. Riley O’Brien was recalled in a corresponding move.
