Last weekend on KMOX, John Mozeliak said that he didn’t believe there would be much left happening at the major league level, but some depth signings on the minor league side may be possible. Both are streaky hitters with solid pop who can play anywhere in the infield, even if they shouldn’t be trusted for long at shortstop. While Gyorko showed more power than Miller in 2020, both samples reflect the similarities in the types of players both are.

The other name that is intriguing among the remaining free agent middle infielders is another former Cardinal in Jedd Gyorko. If I were the Cardinals, I would be knocking on his door. He was one of the team’s only above-average hitters with a 121 wRC+ and he tied the team lead with six homers.

Miller went on to bat better than anyone expected including serving as the team’s cleanup batter for a part of the shortened season. While he was brought in to augment the role that Yairo Munoz was supposed to fill, Munoz left the team less than a month later. Last year, the Cardinals signed Brad Miller on February 12 just before spring training for just $2M. Rumors are still swirling around potentially adding another starter, but that utility spot looks like something worth looking at more. That is it on the 40-man and beyond that, it is solely Rondon and Moroff as options before dipping into the AAA roster. Both have made their MLB debuts, but neither sits as very intriguing options to fill a utility role.Īt the moment, the middle infield depth chart is lead by Paul DeJong and Tommy Edman, with Edmundo Sosa and then maybe Matt Carpenter right after him. Before the most recent round of moves, the team had signed middle infielders Jose Rondon and Max Moroff to minor league deals for depth.
