Known for his ability to play multiple positions and provide consistent offense, the player has been a key contributor to the Cardinals’ success. However, with the team looking to make some changes, it seems his time with the organization may be coming to an end.
While nothing has been confirmed yet, it’s clear that the Cardinals are exploring all options to improve their roster. And unfortunately, that may mean parting ways with a beloved player.

Cardinals Urged to Cut Ties with Struggling Utility Man Before Season’s End
The St. Louis Cardinals took a chance on Garrett Hampson this season, but it may be time to cut ties with the struggling utility man. After being claimed off waivers in June, Hampson has failed to make an impact on the team’s offense.
Despite playing in multiple positions, including all three outfield spots and various infield positions, Hampson has struggled at the plate. In 33 games, he has a dismal .107 batting average with zero home runs and only one RBI.
According to Red Bird Rants’ Stephen Parello, it’s time for the Cardinals to move on from Hampson before the season ends. Parello points out that Hampson has already been on two other teams this season, and it’s clear that he is not the solution for the Cardinals.
With the Cardinals’ chances for a postseason spot dwindling, it would be wise for the team to call up some of their top prospects and give them a chance to play at the big-league level. Slugging outfielders Josh Baez and Nathan Church, who are expected to make their debuts next season, would be great options to replace Hampson.
Additionally, the Cardinals could also give a chance to their third-ranked prospect, Leonardo Bernal, who is projected to be called up in 2026. With limited playoff hope, it’s time for the Cardinals to make a change and give their prospects a shot at the major leagues.
