The 31-year-old spent the majority of the 2022 season on the injured list before eventually undergoing flexor surgery that cost him the whole 2023 campaign.
The St. Louis Cardinals continue to add depth to the organization. The 2023 season certainly was a disaster for the Cardinals and the club has responded by adding some frontline talent, but also bolstering organizational depth with big-league experience.
The Cardinals announced Friday that they’ve signed right-handed reliever Josh James to a minor league contract. The 30-year-old hasn’t pitched in the Majors for two seasons and was non-tendered by the Astros after undergoing season-ending surgery to repair his right flexor tendon in 2022.
