Pallante allowed 10 hits, and he struck out four and walked one. The right-hander’s season ends on a dour note, but it was a solid season for the 28-year-old that saw him forge a 3.83 ERA and 1.27 WHIP over 157 innings with a 106/49 K/BB. Pallante is not a fantasy ace nor close, but he should be a decent streaming option often in 2027.

Pallante gave up three hits, walked two and struck out two. He fell to 12-8 with the loss. Pallante bounced back after allowing eight runs in his last start, but he took the loss again with the Cardinals offense unable to score. He has a 3.61 ERA this year. Pallante is lined up to face the Brewers on the road on Sunday, the final day of the regular season.

Pallante did nice work against a Rafael Devers-less lineup in San Francisco last week, but back at home tonight, he allowed eight hits, walked two and struck out only two. The loss makes him 12-7 with a 3.70 ERA. He’s set to make his next start Tuesday against the Pirates.

Pallante struck out four and didn’t walk anyone. He was making his second start since returning from a brief elbow injury, and he logged five frames both times. In fact, he has pitched at least five innings in all but one start this season. His next outing lines up as a rematch against the Giants, this time at home.

It was Pallante’s first outing since being placed on the injured list with elbow inflammation. There was some clear rust — he didn’t make a rehab start — as he walked four against one strikeout while throwing just 38-of-72 pitches for strikes. Credit to him for giving up just one run, but, it’s worth noting this start came against the Rockies. Pallante doesn’t have another start scheduled yet, but it likely comes in the middle of next week, and it’s likely fantasy managers can ignore him for the time being.

Pallante didn’t make a rehab start while on the IL with elbow inflammation, but the Cardinals probably feel that facing the Rockies provides a similar experience. He’s starting at Coors tonight.

The 27-year-old righty came out of Monday’s start against the Reds feeling a bit of extra soreness in his elbow and further examinations revealed the inflammation. The Cardinals are hopeful that he’ll able to return after missing just a couple of weeks, but with the season winding down he may be a tough hold in redraft leagues.

Pallante got the ball for the second game of Monday’s doubleheader and managed to somehow keep the ball in the yard, despite allowing 10 hits across six frames. He struck out five and only handed out one free pass. He gave up an early run before silencing Cincinnati into the sixth inning before surrendering three runs on hits from Michael Toglia and Héctor Rodríguez in the frame. He’ll face the Phillies to wrap up a two-start week on Saturday.

Pallante and Cristopher Sánchez went zero-for-zero over six innings, so although both starters pitched well enough for a win, but go wanting. The 27-year-old scattered four hits and three walks, and he whiffed two before leaving after 97 pitches. Pallante is never dominant, but more often than not he limits the damage. He’ll take a 3.46 ERA into a scheduled showdown in Cincinnati versus the Reds.

Pallante gave up three hits, walked three and struck out four. He improved to 12-6 with the win. Pallante walked Jazz Chisholm Jr. with the bases-loaded in the sixth inning, but otherwise held the Yankees scoreless. His ERA is 3.63. Pallante is lined up to face the Phillies at home next week.

The right-hander struck out three opposing hitters on the day while issuing a pair of walks. The Cubs scratched out a run against him in the fourth inning, then chased Pallante after a one-out walk in the seventh, with that run ultimately coming around to score. Pallante got 11 whiffs on 90 pitches on the afternoon, registering a CSW of 24 percent. He’ll carry a solid 3.64 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and an 86/34 K/BB ratio (118 2/3 innings) into a tough matchup against the Yankees in New York on Tuesday.

Gordon Graceffo finished up the shutout, adding four more strikeouts. Pallante improved to 11-6 in 20 starts after finishing 6-15 last year. The eight strikeouts, one more than he had totaled in his previous three outings this month, matched his season high from a start against the Mariners in April. He’ll take a 3.77 ERA into his next outing, which will probably come Friday against the Blue Jays.

Pallante had a 7-0 lead after five, but he retired just one of the six batters he faced in the sixth, giving up three hits and then two walks. Ryne Stanek replaced him with two runs in and the bases loaded and managed to strand two of the three runners. However, the Cardinals went on to blow the remainder of the 7-3 lead anyway. Pallante has given up nine runs in his last two starts to push his ERA back up to 4.02. It’s the first time he’s been over 4.00 since the end of May. He’ll face the Reds next weekend.

Pallante also issued a pair of walks in the ballgame while striking out two. The Brewers scratched out a pair of runs against him in the second inning, then broke it open with a four-run third inning capped off by a three-run blast off the bat of Jake Bauers. Pallante generated seven swings and misses on 97 pitches on the night, posting an uninspiring CSW of 23 percent. He finishes a strong first half with a 10-6 record, 3.96 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and a 72/29 K/BB ratio over 100 innings in his first 18 starts.

It’s very easy to pitch when your team puts up 17 runs like the Cardinals did here against David Peterson and the Cubs. Yet, Pallante still let his pitch count get a bit too high and Oli Marmol wouldn’t let him work through a two-out double in the sixth despite them having a 16-run lead. Nevertheless, Pallante was rarely squared up here and was able to be effective despite forcing just four swings-and-misses. Also, he became the fourth pitcher to join the 10-win club so far this season, joining Jacob Misiorowski, Chase Burns, and Justin Wrobleski. Now that’s a crew. Pallante will take a 3.60 ERA and 70 to 27 strikeout to walk ratio through 95 innings into his next scheduled start against the Brewers.

Pallante gave up 11 hits, walked one and struck out four. He fell to 9-5 with the loss. Pallante allowed single runs in the Marlins in the first, third and seventh innings and allowed two runs in the fourth inning. He has a 3.83 ERA. Pallante is lined up to face the Cubs on the road next week.

Pallante struck out two and walked none in another efficient outing. It’s his fifth straight win and fourth outing of the year in which he walked none. He’d still seem to have very little fantasy upside, but it’s hard to argue with a 9-4 record and a 3.59 ERA. He’ll take on the Marlins next time out.

Pallante won for the third time in three starts this month. At 8-4, he has two more victories in 14 starts this year than he did in 31 starts last season. The biggest change from then is that he’s getting more called strikes this season, allowing him to amass a decent 19 percent strikeout rate even though he’s still not generating a bunch of whiffs. He still doesn’t project as a mixed-league guy going forward, but he’s a big reason why the Cardinals are in postseason position at the moment.

Pallante settled into this one nicely after being spotted a big lead early. He consistently challenged the Mets hitters with fastballs in the zone and they could not do much with them. In all, he forced 10 ground balls out of 16 total balls in play in his third quality start out of his last five outings. He now has a 3.88 ERA to go along with 56 strikeouts and 25 walks through 69 2/3 innings this season. Next up, Pallante is scheduled to face the Padres at home.

While he didn’t look sharp out there, Pallante did what he needed to in order to put his team in position to win this one. He didn’t miss many bats, but he forced lots of weakly hit fly balls on his way to another solid outing. Again he wasn’t sharp at all and was especially chaotic with his sinker against righties and didn’t force ground balls at a high rate like we’re used to seeing from him. Still, he left this start with a 3.96 ERA and is scheduled for a date with the Mets next Wednesday.
